BARBRA STREISAND, NET WORTH—$400 MILLION

Barbara Streisand, a veteran personality in Hollywood, is a singer, songwriter, and actress who has won a slew of awards for both acting and singing through the course of her career. Streisand first worked as a singer in her teenage years. In 1960, she moved to New York and performed in various well-known nightclubs like Blue Angel and Bon Soir. A year after that, she made her debut on TV in The Tonight Show.

Her net worth of $400 million is no surprise because her concerts alone have grossed hundreds of millions of dollars, and many of the real estate investments she’s made have also reportedly doubled in value, increasing her net worth even further. Indeed, many might be surprised to know that a huge part of Streisand’s net worth is not because of her singing and acting work but because of the many real estate investments she’s made through her career.
