The Nicholson Family – $400 Million

Did you know that the Nicholsons are one of the richest families in America? Don’t worry, many don’t! Though, when you think about it, it makes perfect sense. After all, thanks to all his hit and Oscar-winning roles, Jack Nicholson became one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood history. Then, he turned around and invested much of that money, making even more money!

While some of Nicholson’s investments, like investments into wine, have turned out well for the actor, some have not. For instance, the actor bought friend Marlon Brandon’s former Hollywood home for over $6 million, only to burn it down shortly after. Later on, he claimed that it was in honor of his late friend! Still, with $400 million, five children, and no wife, Nicholson have the money to spare.
