A few weeks ago there was an article about Caroline in Sweden's leading business paper.
http://di.se/Nyheter/?page=http%3a%2f%2fdi.se%2fAvdelningar%2fArtikel.aspx%3fO%3dIndex%26ArticleId%3d2005%5c01%5c03%5c128774
I've translated the more interesting parts. Just let me know and I'll translate the rest as well.
The headline talks about her making a lot of money modeling.
" I think it's important to have your finances in order. As a model your career is short and hopefully the money I make during these years will last the rest of my life"
The money she makes goes into her own company, Caroline Winberg Inc. Recently she met with her economic advisors in New York that among other business gave an account of how much money she made last year.
"It's lots, lots of money", she says.
How much?
"That I don't want to discuss. I haven't even dared to tell my parents."
The article says she's looking for the apartment of her dreams in New York.
"I think it's wise to invest in real estate. Besides, it also opens for large tax reductions", she says.
Like all models today Caroline's tall and thin. But she's having some difficulty explaining why she is so in demand.
"I'm well-behaved, arrives on time and goes to bed early when I can. Then I've been lucky enough to work with some of the best photographers and I've had good agencys that have pushed me forward."
She, herself, finds her looks far from perfect.
"I've got some skin problems and baby-thin hair..."
"She's marked by an incident a couple of years ago, when she in a documentary said that Mick Jagger had called her a number of times - something that soon reached the tabloids.
"It was in the very beginning of my modeling career. I was 17 and gave a straight answer to a question. I learned a lot from that. Today I never talk about what celebrities I might have met"
Then the article moves on to how Caroline's dream job would be a long term contract with Victoria's Secret, because then she'd never, ever have to worry about money. She plans on continue modeling at least until she's 25. What she'll do when that day comes, she hasn't decided but she says that it feels great to know she'll never have to do something just to make money, that she's free to choose whatever she's most interested in doing.
She sounds like a smart cookie.
