Actress Jami Gertz, 59, did not play a big role in the years. However, this did not make him go back financially. On Thursday, the star of “sixteen cougles” would have a net value of $ 12 billion, by clear celebrity value.
To put this in perspective, Taylor Swift, one of the youngest self -taught billionaires in the world, has a net value of $ 1.5 billion, according to the website. Meanwhile, Oprah Winfrey exceeds the “Shake It Off” hitmaker with a net value of $ 4 billion. But even if you combine their billionaire bank accounts, they do not even get closer to the enormous total of Gertz.
The massive income of the star comes mainly from his marriage to the billionaire investor and owner of the sports team Tony Ressler. Gertz and Ressler are owners of the Atlanta Hawks NBA team, which they bought in 2015 for $ 720 million. They also have a minority participation in the Brewers of Milwaukee.
When they got married in 1989, they probably never imagined while reaching the status of billionaire. In fact, Gertz was the support of the family at the time, telling the Hollywood Reporter in 2018, “everyone thinks that I married a rich guy,” she said. “But I made more money – much more money – than Tony when I met him. I paid for our first house. I paid for our first vacation. I married him because I fell in love with him.”
However, times have apparently changed. A year after having made the knot, Ressler founded the Apollo Global Investment Capital Company, then launched Ares Management seven years later. Both offered their high lifestyle.
“We are an asset manager of $ 125 billion dollars,” said this last company to THR. He added: “I suppose that the right quote would be:” We are the most incredible investment company in the history of the universe. “”
The couple, who have three children together, try to restore. They co -founded the painted turtle, a non -profit organization that offers authentic camp experience to children with chronic and deadly diseases.
Gertz got importance in the 80s in the early 2000s for his roles in films like “Sixteen Candles” and Twister. She also appeared in television shows such as “Seinfeld”, “always standing” and “Ally McBeal”. His latest acting credit was in the film of Amazon Prime 2022 “I Want You Back”.
