The 'Father Stu' protagonist has squeezed out millions of greenbacks from the entertainment industry in salaries and royalties so far, and has been able to fund his business dreams.
Mark co-owns Wahlbergers, a Boston-birthed burger joint, a Barbados-based cricket team, and Aquahydrate, a bottled water startup. Citing the Beverly Hills resident's $30 million home sale in 2015, among others, Mark can be called a real estate Einstein.

Also found on Emily's timeline is her participation in the 2012 'The Bachelorette' series which turned out to be a sensational eyesome and lucrative for the reality TV star.
It is a working hypothesis that in Hollywood, celebrities inadvertently give glimpses of their net worth by the kind of houses they purchase and Emily proves it with her lavish acquisition. Her manoir-esque North Carolina villa is a four-bedroom, four-bathroom fabric right in the pulse of Charlotte and it is valued at $450K.

From the canvas of reality, a picture of Chris' wealth can be perceived by his Agoura Hills chateâu valued at $4.3 million and his luxury-stocked garage.

The bulk of the thespian’s money was invested in royalties and real estate which was a sure bet for growth in his portfolio. Had it not been for the large amounts spent on legal defenses, we are certain that Cosby’s value would be a lot higher than what is listed at the moment.
