Proudly South African...SA Model millionaire!

Candice Swanepoel, super-gorgeous, and apparently super-rich, has made it onto Forbes Top Ten Models List 2012.

The Forbes Top 10 models list are as follows:1. Gisele Bündchen ($45m)2. Kate Moss ($9.2m)3. Natalia Vodianova ($8.6m)4. Adriana Lima ($7.3m)5. Doutzen Kroes ($6.9m)6. Alessandra Ambrosio ($6.6m)7. Miranda Kerr ($4m) 8. Lara Stone ($3.8m) 9. Carolyn Murphy ($3.5m)10. Candice Swanepoel ($3.1m)

It is estimated that she made earnings of about R26 million rand for the year!! Not bad for a local girl spotted at a Durban Flea-Market!!

Now some of you out there may scoff and say that clearly having a pretty face is more important than Science and Maths, but let me say this : No one makes that amount of money without some business acumen!!

So from me, the great and all powerful cookie la trick, a GIANT well-done to our own home-grown honey!!!
