The daughter of Hugo Chavez, the former president who once declared 'being rich is bad,' may be the wealthiest woman in Venezuela, according to evidence reportedly in the hands of Venezuelan media outlets.
Maria Gabriela Chavez, 35, the late president's second-oldest daughter, holds assets in American and Andorran banks totaling almost $4.2billion, Diario las Americas reports.

Others close to Chavez managed to build up great personal wealth that was kept outside the petrostate. Alejandro Andrade, who served as Venezuelas treasury minister from 2007 to 2010 and was reportedly a close associate of Chavez, was discovered to have $11.2billion in his name sitting in HSBC accounts in Switzerland, according to documents leaked by whistleblower Hervé Falciani.
After her father's death in 2013 and until her appointment to the United Nations as alternate ambassador, Chavez continued to live in the presidential mansion, forcing the current president Nicolas Maduro to remain at the vice presidential home.

We are approaching South American levels of corruption here. Hillary is trying to out-steal even the dictators.
Isn’t Socialism grand...
just as thick , ugly and pig-like as her old man .
Venezuela has many beautiful women , the sion of the slum
underclass is not one of them . Proof positive that homely people should not procreate .
Suppose she has any problem getting toilet paper like other every day Venezuelans? Prolly not. Or food or champagne. Typical of the untouchable socialists.
It’s easy when you’re well connected and don’t pay your bills.
She must have charged a lot for sleeping around.
bump
That happens here too.
Look at Castro or anywhere. Power corrupts.
Marxists always get wealthy once in power. Somehow their voters overlook that. Just look at Hitlery ranting about making the wealthy pay more taxes while she amasses wealth
Socialism is built upon crony capitalism.....the Loyal party members and family all get filthy rich on the back of the Proles.
Inevitable under Socialism
Thank you Michael Moore!
Gee, you’d never think an elitist commie would not only be worth billions, but have it in a non-commie country where it’s safe.
She’s most definitely far better looking than her old man.
I don’t care how much she has, I’m not going near it without a hazmat suit and 00 buck.
