Ellen DeGeneres is one of the richest self-made women in America. Here's how the comedian spends her $330 million fortune, from flipping houses to luxury sports cars.

DeGeneres told The TODAY Show in 2018 that she grew up in apartments without a lot of money, which sparked her real estate zeal. "Now, I just buy as many houses as I can."

When not at one of their many houses, DeGeneres and de Rossi travel. They've vacationed everywhere from Capri, Italy, to London, where they attended the Wimbledon Tennis Championships.

For DeGeneres' birthday, they traveled to Africa, where they visited Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania, among other countries.

Growing up poor, DeGeneres decided she wouldn't be a financial stickler if she found success. "I am always going to just get what I want, I'm going to do what I want," she once said on her show. "Because I know there is an abundance and I will always have enough."
