It may seem obvious that our favorite stars are incredibly wealthy, but seeing the real amount they have in the bank (and tied up in real estate, cars, and more) often comes as a shock. The earnings they’ve accrued – whether from a lengthy film career or that one brilliant idea – tally up to a truly eye-watering amount.

It’s doubtful we’ll be seeing any of these celebrities struggling financially any time soon. Read on to see the wealthiest members of our society and how they afford their lavish lifestyles!

Cardi B – Singer, $24 Million

Forbes’ one of the most influential female rappers of all time, Cardi B is worth $24 million as of now. At just 27 years old, the influential singer has added several records to her kitty, which include Billboard Music Awards and a Grammy Award, among others.

Just like the way she earns massively, the rapper also likes to spend lavishly! With two three-bedroom houses worth over $100,000, expensive clothing and accessories, luxurious cars, and much more, Cardi is leading a dream life! And if that’s not enough, she also gifts generously to her family members now and then.

Parker Schnabel – Miner & TV Personality, $8 Million

He is only 25 years old, but Parker Schnabel has already earned himself a vast fortune of around $8 million. Ever since he was a child, he’s been spending his time in the mines, next to his father and grandfather. By the age of 15, Parker was helping his grandad run the family business!

Today, Parker’s a TV star and a world-famous miner! He has his show, Gold Rush: Parker’s Trail, on top of appearing in Gold Rush: Alaska since 2011! However, Parker’s not chosen to invest in real estate of fancy vehicles like other celebrities. Instead, he invests all his earnings back into his business so far.

Tom Brady – American Football Quarterback, $180 Million

After winning 6 Super Bowl games and 4 Most Valuable Player awards, Tom Brady is reined among the top 10 NFL athletes in the world. With nearly two decades on the field, the leading quarterback has recently announced that he is entering free agency.

Rumor has it that he will be signing soon and is expecting a hefty annual salary (No surprises there!). Having an already impressive net worth of $180 million, allows Brady to splurge on the likes of sixteen thousand dollar diets. He is also married to supermodel Gisele Bundchen, and the couple boasts a joint value of $540 million. A power couple, for sure!

Kevin Durant – Basketball Player, $170 Million

The National Basketball Association drafted Kevin Durant in 2007 by the Seattle SuprSonics, and in 2019 he found himself singing a four-year-long contract with the Brooklyn Nets which added $164 million to his existing net worth! Overall, Kevin Durant might only be 31 years old, but he’s already worth $170 million due to his widely recognized skills in the field. 

With having all this money, he’s gotten to enjoy many luxuries, like his old Malibu house, which he sold in 2019 for $12.15 million after owning it for just a year. In 2020, he and some of his teammates tested positive with COVID-19, but thankfully he was able to recover smoothly.

Kobe Bryant – Basketball Player, $600 Million

Kobe Bryant won his $600 million fortune both on and off the court – that’s how he did it! Being a legendary basketball player, we applaud Kobe for his athleticism, which earned him an impressive salary and even more in endorsements. According to Forbes, he was the highest-paid athlete in the history of team sports back in 2016.

By the time the NBA star retired, he had a total career earnings of $770 million, showing us how to go out in style. Even after retiring, Kobe continued to make money moves that saw him bagging an Oscar for his short film titled ‘Dear Basketball’.

Paige Spiranac – Professional Golfer, ~$3 Million

The dreamgirl of many, Paige Renee Spiranac, is a professional golfer known for her incredible social media presence. She has around 2M followers on Instagram; however, her intention was to only post trick-videos!

Spiranac has played college golf at the University of Arizona and the San Diego State University. She played professionally on the Cactus Tour in 2015 that earned her the only win at Scottsdale’s Orange Tree Country Club. In 2016, Spiranac said yes to the marriage proposal by a former minor league baseball player, Steven Tinoco. As of 2020, Paige has a stunning net worth of ~$3 Million to her name!

Rick Harrison – TV Personality, $5 Million

The TV star is popularly known for co-owning the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas. This shop gets featured on the History Channel’s highest-rated reality series, ‘Pawn Stars’, which helps Rick make a weekly turnover of $2000.

Hence, the businessman not only earns through his store but also by the show incomes. Now isn’t that a smart investment? Accordingly, Harrison has made fortunes worth $5 million and owns a large house, dashing cars, and several other properties.
