Child stars that are richer than you’ll ever be – All child stars have at least two things things in common— they’re cute and loaded. Regardless of whether they grew up, and went to pursue other ventures like the Olsen twins, or stayed in the business of filmmaking or music like Natalie Portman and Taylor Momsen, kids could always make quite a buck in entertainment.

Their childhood may have been more effortless or even happy, but the Fanning sisters, Chloe Moretz, and a slew of other established names did well for themselves money-wise, starring in TV shows, movies, as well as ads. And for a lot of them, the never-ending work opens up completely different doors in the world; those of fashion houses or even the UN’s.
With even TV show salaries reaching five and six figures, a 6-year-old can make in a week what his middle-class father or mother makes in a month or two. And if your kid is talented and lucky enough to pass auditions for the big screen productions, his or her net worth can amount to a few millions over a short period of two to four years.
Move over Ashley and Mary-Kate, this new generation of child stars is already amassing millions, securing their place in the spotlight for their future.
