Time of India13-07-2025
The world's richest actor is an immigrant with a net worth of $1.2 billion, was once raised by a Nazi military policeman.
The Forbes magazine has released an interesting list - America's most successful immigrants.
The list contains names of billionaire immigrants, people who were born outside the US but emigrated to the United States and made it big.
In addition to celebrities like George Soros, Satya Nadella, Peter Thiel, and Elon Musk, the list also includes some from the entertainment industry, such as the richest actor in the world, a 77-year-old who was raised in a Nazi home before rising to become one of America's most adored icons.
According to Forbes, action icon and former California governor
Arnold Schwarzenegger
has an incredible net worth of $1.2 billion, making him the richest actor in the world. Even though this is a significant drop from his $1.49 billion peak earlier this year, he remains at the top of the list. Among men and women who have derived their fame and wealth from acting primarily, nobody else is a billionaire.
Arnold is followed by Tom Cruise, Dwayne Johnson, and Shah Rukh Khan, all of whom have net worths between $800 and $900 million.
The only female performer billionaire is Rihanna, whereas the only male performer billionaires are Tyler Perry and Jerry Seinfeld. However, none of them are actors for a living.
The 77-year-old describes his Austrian childhood as existing in a "very different world" compared to his existence as a Hollywood icon. He characterised his parents, mother Aurelia and father Gustav, as "very strict" figures.
In a candid chat with Schwarzenegger.com back in 2000, the Hollywood icon shared: "It's true my parents were very strict and I think many times I'm very strict with my own children but not like it was when I grew up.
Back then in Austria it was a very different world - if we did something bad or we disobeyed our parents, the rod was not sparred.'
Arnold's journey into bodybuilding began in the 1960s, clinching the Junior Mr Europe title and leading him to Forest Gate, London, for training sessions with Charles Bennett.
He became the youngest winner of the Mr. Universe title at the young age of 20, and he saw the victory as his ticket to the American dream he had dreamed of since he was ten.
Arnold showed off his strength in a number of weightlifting and powerlifting competitions during the 1960s, and at the age of 23, he became the youngest person to ever win the coveted title of Mr. Olympia.
The beginning of his acting career came in the early 1970s when he played Arnold Strong in the movie Hercules in New York. However, the 1982 smash movie Conan the Barbarian, which brought him a lot of money at the box office, was what actually made him famous.
1989 saw him take on what is often hailed as his defining role, playing the lead in James Cameron's The Terminator, cementing his place as a silver screen legend. Arnold's career was marked by a string of appearances in blockbuster action films, a trend that continued throughout his professional life, with notable roles in films such as Predator, Commando, and Red Heat.
During his career, Arnold's films are estimated to have made about $5.2 billion (around £3.8 billion) at the box office.
According to Forbes, Arnold's acting skills and astute investments have contributed to his net worth of approximately $1.2 billion (or £800 million).
He is now one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood history as a result. According to Forbes, he has earned over $500 million from film salaries alone. His lucrative real estate investments in California and his minority ownership in fellow billionaire David Booth's Dimensional Fund Advisors are examples of his successful business endeavours outside of the movie industry.
The actor now has a variety of commercial ventures, such as Fitness Publications Inc., his film firm Oak Productions, and his trademark and film holding company Pumping Iron America.
Despite his monumental success in Hollywood, Arnold has scaled back his filmmaking in recent years. As per IMDB, his last major screen role was in Terminator: Dark Fate in 2019. Since then, he has featured in a series of short films and the TV series Superhero Kindergarten.

Hulk Hogan's car collection was just like him - muscly and loud - adding to his impressive net worth

Hulk Hogan with The Hulkster Hulk Hogan has passed away at the age of 71. While the cause of death is yet to be revealed, it's assumed that a massive cardiac arrest led to his sudden demise. He leaves behind a family - his wife, Sky Daily, and his children - Brooke and Nick. At the time of his death, Hogan had a net worth of $25 million. From liquid assets to real estate to his impressive car collection, they all added to his fortune. Let's take a look at all that Hulk Hogan has left behind. Hulk Hogan's spectacular collection of cars From "The Hulkster" - a red and yellow 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10, that paid tribute to his wrestling persona, to his other muscle cars, Hulk Hogan's car collection was impressive, to say the least. And while Hulk Hogan had quite the collection of Dodges and Plymouths, he didn't hesitate to show off with machines like a Porsche 911 Carrera, a Ferrari 360 Spyder, and a Lamborghini Gallardo. His garage was a mirror image of himself: over-the-top and loud. Now let's take a look at all the cars his garage has housed until now.

And while personally things had taken a nosedive for him, he soon gained his footing and got back in the game. In 2016, he won an amazing $115 million from the magazine Gawker, which had released his sex tape after Hogan sued them. He also earned around $2.5 million annually in recent years, thanks to his WWE Legends contract, various endorsements, and multiple entrepreneurial efforts like Hogan's Beach Shop and The Real American Beer. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Why Walgreens Hides This Cheap 87¢ Generic Cialis Health Alliance by Friday Plans Learn More Undo Both brands found success - his bar and restaurant business even saw expansion, as the Hogan's Beach brand got into retail, and the veteran star opened shops in both Orlando and Clearwater, Florida.
