Elisabeth Shue, 59 – $12.5 Million

As beautiful as she was, Elisabeth Shue was also a brainiac, which is how she got into Harvard University in 1985. However, she dropped out to become an actress although, she did return and complete her education while building a successful acting career.

You might recall Shue from her roles in The Karate Kid, Back to the Future Part II and III, and Leaving Las Vegas. At 59, Shue is worth $12.5 million, which isn’t too surprising as she’s been pretty consistent on the screens, hardly ever out of work. In fact, we can expect to see her in Constance and On the Verge soon.
