2. Oprah Winfrey
The talk show goddess was actually once fired from her 6pm local news spot for getting too emotionally invested in the many stories she was presenting. Oprah Winfrey was down-graded to a daytime slot which turned out to be a blessing in disguise. The all happened at a time no one even knew who she was (or was going to become).
The Oprah Winfrey Show aired for 25 years and is today one of the longest-running talk shows ever. Oprah Winfrey is estimated to now be worth over $3.2 billion. Wow. Once again, sometimes failure is simply redirection to something greater, and Oprah really proves that.
