Five of the wealthiest women on earth are still unmarried, according to Wealth-X, a company that conducts research on the super-wealthy. With Valentine’s Day in mind, they provided us with a list of the richest bachelorettes in five age groups: 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s. Combined, they’re worth $46 billion.

Meet five of the wealthiest bachelorettes in the world below, including owners of a biotech startup and a luxury clothing business.

James is currently focused on Soho Revue Gallery, the young artist-focused contemporary art gallery she opened last spring with her then-boyfriend Will Pelham.

When she was 19, Holmes dropped out of Stanford to found the company and has dedicated her life to it since. According to a 2014 New Yorker profile, the CEO lives in a “two-bedroom condo in Palo Alto…no longer devotes time to novels or friends, doesn’t date, doesn’t own a television, and hasn’t taken a vacation in ten years.”

Though Holmes’ image is that of a well-intentioned hard worker, she’s facing harsh criticisms for reports claiming dodgy business practices. “This is what happens when you work to change things,” Holmes fired back. “First they think you’re crazy, then they fight you, then you change the world.”

Despite being one the most affluent women in Turkey, Sahenk isn’t a public fixture. She’s a behind-the-scenes advocate for women’s leadership and development and an active philanthropist as president of the Ayhan Sahenk Foundation, which supports education, the environment, and social and healthcare-related causes.
