MICHAEL J. FOX | $70 MILLION

Marty Mcfly remains to be a legend in the sci-fi genre. However, before landing that legendary role, Michael J. Fox had his humble beginnings on the sitcom Leo and Me in Canada. Sadly, the show would last only one season. Fox would then pursue his dreams of stardom in Los Angeles. There he would star in the immensely successful sitcom Family Ties in 1982. By the end of this TV series in 1989, Fox would have three Emmys under his belt.

During this golden era, he would land film roles in Teen Wolf and the ever-iconic Back to the Future franchise. In 1996, Fox would return to television with the sitcom Spin City. During the third season of this series, he’d reveal his ailment, Parkinson’s Disease. At this time, Fox had to put his career on hold and tend to his health. Luckily, he had the appropriate insurance to help him with his expenses. Fox is now well-known to be one of the leading voices for the advocacy for the research in the treatment of Parkinson’s Disease. As of 2021, he is estimated to have a net worth of $70 million.
