Her shareholding in BMW is smaller than her mother (16,7%) and brother Stefan's (17.4%) shareholding, so saying she's the richest person in the auto indusrty isn't really correct based on wealth accumulated from the auto industry. A lot of her wealth comes from the chemical company Altana.

Since she's prone to having affairs maybe some of you guys might get lucky.

I did not realize that the holdings of BMW stock were so concentrated.

The guy the owns IKEA, Ingvar Kamprad, who btw was a shed load more money that Klatten drives around in an old 1980's Volvo 240. Some billionaires are pretty frugal.

She properly has a few cents of mine if not dimes or even dollars from the 5 BMW's I've purchased in the past less the 4 years, 2009 to 2012 (z4 e85, z4 e89, and now in my third e92) oh well it's just money. As in the Hans Albers song "Im himmel gibts kein beer so trinken wir es his" translation ---> In heaven there is no beer so we drink it here" ... just replace beer with BMW's ... you get the idea ~big grin~

She divested a bit prior to her and her company SKion buying in heavily to SGL Carbon SE, if you look at how BMW and Klatten created the automotive portion of SGL it was a blocking move and take over without taking over the whole company.

VIA REUTERS-Susanne Klatten, a major investor in carmaker BMW, is set to become head of the supervisory board at SGL Carbon, giving her more influence over the carbon fibre firm in which both BMW and rival VW have stakes.

SGL said on Wednesday (13.3) the supervisory board would ask shareholders at their April 30 annual meeting to approve Klatten as chairwoman.

In 2011 BMW secured a 15.7 percent stake in SGL, the only European maker of fibres that go into ultra-lightweight carbon reinforced plastics, stealing a march on Volkswagen , which holds almost 10 percent of the firm's shares.

Klatten, currently deputy chairwoman of the supervisory board, owns just under 27 percent of SGL Carbon via the Skion holding company.

Klatten and BMW own nearly 43% of SGL.

As of April she takes over the supervisory board of SGL therefore diminishing VAGs influence in SGL. As of cars she is one of the lucky ones to have a MINI Goodwood aswell as a 7er , X5 and a Phantom. The BMWs are of course completely Individual specification.
