Kaley Cuoco | AGE 35 | $100 Million

Kaley Cuoco is most known for her role as Penny on The Big Bang Theory, although the very successful 12-season program was only a tiny part of the actress’s long career. Cuoco has been an ambitious actor and has had vivid recollections of performing on stage since five since she was a child. Before she achieved her massive investment money, she landed a few minor roles.

Kaley went on to star in several renowned television shows, including 8 Simple Rules and Charmed. Still, she’s probably best remembered for her stint on the popular sitcom The Big Bang Theory. She performed what she described as her “dream role” for 12 seasons, from 2007 to 2019. Cuoco earns $1 million each episode by Season 8, making her the second-highest-paid actress on television. And despite being essentially anti-Hollywood, she has achieved the ultimate Hollywood success story.
