7. Anderson Cooper

One of if not the most prominent face on CNN, Anderson Cooper has
experienced a range of highs and lows in life. The son of the heiress to
the Vanderbilt Empire, Gloria Vanderbilt (net worth $200 million,) Cooper
spent time modeling (really?) for agencies that gave him gigs with Ralph
Lauren. After the death of his father and losing his brother to suicide,
his focus shifted towards journalism. Cooper’s net worth hovers around $100
million and pulls in close to $11 million per year.
