Here's an article from an Orlando magazine concerning Paula White and her lifestyle.

White, who along with then-husband Randy White, founded a Tampa-based congregation in 1991 later named Without Walls International Church, has enjoyed a level of wealth her followers could only dream of. Before the couple amicably divorced in 2007, their extravagances included private jets, luxury vehicles, a condo in Trump Park Avenue and another costing $3.5 million in Trump Tower on New York’s 5th Avenue, and a $2 million family home fronting Tampa Bay.
Also in 2007, the Tampa Tribune, as part of an investigative series on the Whites and their church, reported that an independent audit showed the couple and Without Walls ministries brought in nearly $40 million in 2006. That year, the paper reported, the Whites took a combined $600,000 in salary and benefits, although one of the church’s financial advisers said that some years the Whites’ combined compensation was $1.5 million, and family members were believed to make up much of the ministry’s $5 million annual payroll. At one point, Paula’s separate broadcast business, Paula White Ministries, was bringing in $50,000-$80,000 a week, according to the Tribune.
Paula, in 2007, gave Bishop T.D. Jakes of Dallas a black Bentley convertible for his 50th birthday. Paula credits Jakes, pastor of the black megachurch The Potter’s House, with catapulting her career to stardom when he invited her to speak at an African-American women’s conference in 2000.
