Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo, whose annual salary sits at $10 million (£7.9 million), has said the foundation of her wealth goes back to a single childhood lesson from her mother: learn to save before you learn to spend.
Bartiromo, 58, has spoken publicly about her mother Josephine's influence on her approach to money across multiple interviews over the years. Josephine Bartiromo grew up during the Great Depression and spent her life 'like a little squirrel, saving her nuts,' as Bartiromo told Parade.
