ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER

Arnold Schwarzenegger has become a global icon in his 60-year career. He made a name for himself in bodybuilding at age 15, joining and winning European bodybuilding contests. Eventually, he joined Mr. Universe and Mr. Olympia, winning those titles thrice and seven times, respectively. This made Schwarzenegger one of the most legendary male bodybuilders of all time. This also became the impetus for his fledgling acting career. He became world-famous for his roles as Conan and the Terminator.

Aside from that, he starred in classics such as Total Recall, Commando, Predator, and Kindergarten Cop. He eventually slowed down his acting and bodybuilding career to focus on politics. He was elected Governor of California in 2003. His tenure lasted until 2011 when he no longer became eligible to run for another term. Since then, he has returned to acting. He ventured into business and investments and has a net worth of $400 million. At 73, the Terminator is still as active and influential as ever.
