Yes, it is a widely known fact that celebrities, stars and famous faces make plenty of money. But just how much wealth do they actually have may shock you and make you look at your own bank account’s balance with envy.

Some celebrities end up making more money via carefully planned investments rather than their chosen career or skill! Of course, that happens when one has great business skills or an excellent wealth management team.

So what is that makes these celebrities rich, and how are they spending it? Let’s show you how…

LeBron James: ~ $480 Million

LeBron James, the famed NBA player from the Los Angeles Lakers team, is often regarded as one of the best basketball players in the world, and his on-court performance certainly substantiates this claim. His career earnings have now crossed the $1 billion mark, even as he is worth $480 million today.

Although his professional basketball career certainly gave his bank balance a boost, LeBron turned out to be an intelligent investor. Along with the $20 million each year he scores from his Nike shoe line, he has several huge endorsements, such as his SpringHill Entertainment production company and his media company, Uninterrupted. LeBron also invested in Beats by Dre.
