Denzel Washington – Net Worth: $280 million

Winning two Oscars for Best Supporting Actor and Best Actor is a tribute to Denzel Washington’s work in Hollywood. Apart from the excellent performance he has shown in his movies, the Black actor has also been given credit for redefining how classic movie stardom is viewed. His work since the 1980s has also been critically acclaimed, including his portrayals in Cry Freedom, Malcolm X, and The Great Debaters.

Accumulating about $280 million in net worth, the actor could undoubtedly afford to live a life many of us could only wish for. Even though he is rich, he also looks for bargains, such as when he stumbled upon an eight-bedroom house in Beverly Hills. For $2.675 million in 1992, it was definitely a steal! When it comes to cars, however, Washington likes to spend a bit more. He is the proud owner of an Aston Martin DBS, which typically retails at $100,000. When going on vacations, he also likes leasing a yacht so his family could enjoy it.
