(eurweb.com) — It is widely known that the wealthiest Black person in America is television talk-show diva Oprah Winfrey. No one else even comes close. Winfrey had reached a net worth of $2.7 billion. However, culling information from a variety of sources, we conclude that the recession was not kind to Winfrey and she finished 2010 with wealth between $2.4 billion and $2.5 billion. Despite a disastrous year in golf and a divorce, second place still goes to golfer Tiger Woods. However, Woods was projected to have reached billionaire status this year. It did not happen. We estimate Woods lost $200 million in endorsement money due to his much publicized infidelities and that he settled with his ex-wife for roughly $100 million leaving him with a net worth of somewhere between $650 million and $700 million.
