Check Out These 9 Celebrities Who Are Extremely Frugal Despite Being Wealthy

It’s common for celebrities worldwide to have deep pockets; it comes with the territory.

Many of them earn money from multiple ventures aside from what they are famous for. Advertisement or ambassadorship deals with prominent brands are common ways most celebrities make tons of money.

If you did a quick search to find out how much celebrities get paid for featuring in movies or releasing new music, you’d be hurrying to join the entertainment industry.

In 2023, research showed that the average musician earns $45,268 as a salary. Famous musicians make a lot more. 

The top actors in the world can earn as much as $10–40 million for one movie. Now imagine how much they make in one year.

With the amount of money they earn, these individuals can afford almost anything that comes to mind, from cars to mansions to expensive vacations. And you can bet that most celebrities don’t hold back when it comes to living La Vida Loca.

Musician Celine Dion bought a humidifier for her home in Las Vegas for $2 million. This is nothing compared to Kim Basinger purchasing an entire town in Georgia for $20 million.

However, some celebrities aren't too crazy about the luxury life. They prefer to get only what they need and save the rest or use it for the greater good.
