Johnny Carson – $300 Million
Johnny Carson – the original comedic master. When he passed away in 2005, Carson was worth $300 million. A true expert at late night television, Carson was also truly a good person – he gave over half of his money to charity after his death. His donation of $156 million benefited dozens of charities, including (but certainly not limited to) the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles.
