The Heiress Who Said ‘Tax Me More!’

What if the person with everything decided the system was broken—and then put her money where her mouth is?

That’s not a headline. That’s Marlene Engelhorn’s real life.

In this episode of Reppin, Marlene—yes, a multi-millionaire heiress from Vienna—breaks down why growing up rich wasn’t the dream everyone assumes… and how waking up to her privilege pushed her to become one of the most outspoken voices for wealth redistribution, tax reform, and economic justice.

This isn’t performative philanthropy. It’s not guilt. It’s ACTION. REAL action. She literally gave away her inheritance. She co-founded Tax Me Now. She’s building a citizens' assembly to decide how to redistribute her wealth—democratically.

If you’re someone who cares about social justice, economic inequality, wealth privilege, or what real accountability looks like, this episode is basically a masterclass.

And if you’ve ever wondered why the system feels rigged—or what actual allyship looks like when someone with power steps up—this conversation is going to hit hard.

You’ll hear Marlene get real about:

• The emotional and social cost of extreme wealth
• The moment she realized her “normal” wasn’t normal at all
• The awkward truth about privilege, friendships, and trust
• How relationships, care, and humanity drive real social change
