PIERCE BROSNAN – $200 MILLION

The actor and producer first gained prominence through the Bond films GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, and The World Is Not Enough, and Die Another Day. True to his former Bond character, Pierce is seen as a worldly debonair—with a taste for all things elegant and lavish. However, whilst some of this is certainly true, Pierce is less hedonistic about the way he spends his money.

In fact, he is a well-known activist and is beloved for his charitable work. He donates profits from his art prints to various charities benefitting various causes such as the environment, children, and women’s health. In 2007, the actor and his wife were praised for donating over $100k to replace a playground in Kauai, where they also own a home. Pierce Brosnan may have had a difficult childhood, but he makes all of these personal loans out of the goodness of his heart. The James Bond of the industry is also a James Bond in real life.
