CHUCK NORRIS | $70 MILLION

The American action movie scene would not be the same without the influence of artists like Chuck Norris.

The American actor is best known for his martial arts skills highlighted in films like The Delta Force, Missing In Action, and Lone Wolf McQuade. However, before making it big in Hollywood, he was an Air Force and Air Policeman for the United States. The actor served during the Korean War and was stationed in Osan, South Korea. After his time in the military, he returned to the US and spent his investment money setting up a martial arts studio. His business eventually became a hit with the rich and the famous, and it didn’t take long before Norris welcomed some A-list clients like Priscilla Presley and Steve McQueen. Thanks to his celebrity clientele, the martial arts expert was also able to break into the acting scene. Today, he is reportedly worth $70 million.
