Ruth Parasol. She is without peer when it comes to successful, self-made women entrepreneurs.
Prettier too. Believe that.
After law school, Ruth went to work for one of her dad's phone businesses for a while – an audiotex pay-per-call 900 number provider. It grew rapidly from a domestic to a global enterprise before transitioning to Internet services in the mid- 90s.
That's an interesting way of describing a phone sex line.
Who cares, she's legit.
Look, a lot of people made money during the internet gambling boom but no American made anything remotely close to what she made and stayed out of jail.
