CHUCK NORRIS – EST. $70 MILLION

A native in Oklahoma, Chuck Norris is an American actor, producer, and martial artist. In his late teenage years, he was drafted as Air Policeman in the Air Force. He served there for four years and was discharged. He made an acting debut because of his excellence in martial arts, opposite Dean Martin, for The Wrecking Crew. Later, he made a movie with Bruce Lee titled
The Way of the Dragon.

The film had a worldwide gross of $130 million for a $130,000 budget. Norris did other projects after, but his leading role in CBS’ Walker, Texas Ranger, secured his life probably better than having insurance. The show lasted from 1993 to 2001 and indeed made him several tens of thousands of dollars, if not hundreds, for every episode. In 2020, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Norris had an impressive net worth of $70 million.
