Let’s pay homage to Hetty Green (1834-1916). Known as the Queen of Wall Street, it could be said she was one of the greatest investors ever. Ms. Green turned an inheritance of $6 million received in 1865 – when she was 31 years old – into a fortune tallying more than $100 million by the time of her death in 1916. In current U.S. dollars, that was a net worth greater than $2 billion.
