Financial Empire

Financial empires depict how a country or entity controls the world via the financial system. It's easy to look at the world's wealthiest people and marvel at their accomplishments. They can afford to buy multiple houses and cars and luxuries that most of us can only dream of. In some cases, this wealth might be inherited, but the vast majority of millionaires and billionaires are self-made. These wealth empires don't just appear out of thin air; they are worked for and pushed for over the course of a lifetime.
