PHIL MCGRAW – $460 Million

Phil McGraw and Jay Leno are familiar faces on TV as both are TV hosts of their own shows. Phil is a licensed psychologist but is not practicing it formally. He retired from the professional field in 2006 and pursued a different career. Dr. Phil rose to fame after Oprah Winfrey hired him as an adviser for a lawsuit that she was facing. The latter offered him to guest in her show which became his stepping stone to a fruitful career and numerous investments.

He later had his own talk show called, The Dr. Phil Show. Aside from that, he also launched a spinoff called The Doctors wherein they answer questions from those who need help with their health. Phil also produced Bull which stars Michael Weatherly, who is best known for his role in NCIS as Agent Dinozzo. Although Jay and Phil both rose to fame through TV shows, Phil’s net worth outperforms that of Jay by $10 million.
