HOWARD STERN—$650 MILLION

Radio and television personality, Howard Stern, who is best known for hosting The Howard Stern Show, is reportedly worth a whopping $650 million. Indeed, we don’t know of any radio personality who is worth this much, but Stern seems to have managed to do it. Apparently, Stern was destined to be a radio host, too, and shared that his dad set up a kiddie radio station for him when he was five years old, so he could pretend to host a radio show whenever he liked.

Well, now Stern is, to his credit, the richest radio personality in the world. And it is all thanks to his dad’s encouragement. Stern became the radio host who was fined the most in history, when the FCC imposed a fine of $2.5 million for content that he considered indecent. In 2005, Stern bought a vacant lot in South Hampton, New York for $20 million. He built a huge customs building on this land. In 2013, Stern and his wife bought a 12-bedroom mansion on 3.25 acres of land in Palm Beach, Florida, for $52 million.
