Celebrities Who Are Going Broke Need To Holler At Morgan Freeman! He's Insanely Rich Because Of Good Investments!

Morgan Freeman grew up in Mississippi where folks are wretchedly poor. That's why he really was smart about saving & investing his income. While everybody is trying to outdo the Jones,Morgan Freeman has outdone the failing economy. For too many celebrities,the shit is hitting the fan at a rapid pace. Almost monthly now, you hear about some rapper auctioning off their jewelry or a singer losing her home. Even though he may have to pay $100 million to his wife in a divorce settlement,the real story is how major Freeman's cash flow is. I don't think anybody had any idea that he was sitting on that kind of dough.Here's more from the Chicago Sun-Times:

"Though there's no comment from either party in this breakup, Freeman's wife of 24 years stands to rake in more than $100 million in a potential settlement.

Original estimates put the actor's net worth in the $75 million to $90 million range, but now it is being reported he may be worth as much as three to four times that amount.

Among assets contributing to the actor's bounty are a very valuable gold coin collection, a rare stamp collection, a $7 million home in the Virgin Islands, real estate in Freeman's native Mississippi worth nearly $30 million (including a $5 million personal home), a $10 million New York apartment and a $15 million Los Angeles estate.

"Morgan has always remembered what it was like to be a poor, struggling actor, and as a result he has always been very careful with his money. Morgan isn't cheap, but he has always been pretty frugal" a longtime associate told me Tuesday."(END OF EXCERPT) Read the whole article here:http://www.suntimes.com/entertainment/zwecker/1313336,CST-FTR-zp04.article
