Take a Look at the Surprising Net Worths of These Celebrities
George R.R. Martin – $50M
George R.R. Martin brought us Game of Thrones. He earns about $15 million a year from TV royalties alone and another $10 million in book sales. In fact, his books have sold over 25 million copies worldwide. Despite his fame and affluence, the writer leads a very low-key life and stays in Santa Fe in New Mexico. He is a novelist, short story writer, screenwriter, and producer. He may not be into building hefty portfolios or real estate investments (he still drives his old Mazda and prefers casual over fine dining), but he’s still a millionaire.
