The Quiet and Humbled Lifestyles of Hollywood’s Wealthiest Celebrities

You would think late-night talk show host Jay Leno would be living off his fortune from his television show on NBC, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, which wrapped in 2009. However, you’ll be surprised to learn that to this day, he has not spent a dime of his paycheck from any episode. 

Throughout his life, Leno lived off his side jobs as a writer for the television comedy Good Times as well as acting gigs on sitcoms such as Laverne & Shirley and in films like Hot Wax, Collision Cours, and The Flintstones. Now retired with a net worth of $350 million, Leno lives off the proceeds from his standup career.
