Billy Dee Williams – 84 years old
Net worth: $9 Million
William December “Billy Dee” Williams Jr. was born in New York City on April 6, 1937. He is an actor and novelist who is most likely recognized in the Star Wars film franchise as Lando Calrissian. In 1945, at age seven, he made it to Broadway and acted in The Firebrand of Florence. He attended The High School of Music & Art, then entered the National Academy of Fine Arts and Design from a painting scholarship. This is where he received a Hallgarten Prize for stroking his brush in the mid-‘50s. To have the means in buying art supplies, Williams returned from an acting hiatus. He subsequently acted in films, TV, and stage, then continued his passion for painting, where his works have been shown in various galleries and collections globally.
Williams’ investments in the entertainment industry gave him numerous accolades and honors, such as three NAACP Image Awards and the NAACP Lifetime Achievement award. With his net worth of $9 million, he could probably afford every art supply available.
