Richard Simmons – 75-Years-Old, $15 Million Net Worth
When Richard Simmons first appeared on the fitness scene in the late 70s, the flamboyant, energetic gym-owner quickly became a national sensation. Apparently, people fell in love with his positive attitude and, of course, fun workouts! Before long, Simmons began appearing on shows like the Late Show with David Letterman, while his Sweatin’ to the Oldies aerobics tapes became bestsellers!
In the early 2000s, Simmons decided to focus his energy on becoming a political advocate for physical fitness in school. Then, in 2004, after a long-running entertainment and fitness career, he finally retired. Nowadays, Simmons prefers life away from the spotlight. Of course, with a net worth of $15 million, he can do pretty much whatever he wants!
