Date: November 19th, 2018 1:14 AM Author: Amber Locus No idea if he's actually worth that much but he's been a bankable star for 30+ years, so it makes sense.
He's extremely critically lauded and he never got overexposed, so he can command hefty salaries when he does act in mainstream films. He has done a half dozen or so films where he's purely there for audience draw and he's been able to command $5-10 million for those roles since the mid 90s. If you're already very comfortable when you start getting those checks and you're not a reckless materialist nut, it adds up quickly. Also, CA real estate buyer with expansive equity going back to the 80s, and consider that sweetheart investment opportunities are showered on huge stars like him because rich people want to be part of his circle. Penn's family was also middle class Beverly Hills well-to-do and he may have inherited a chunk. That obviously only would have been meaningful when he was much younger but it doesn't hurt. Celebrities also make money in other ways we don't realize, like foreign advertisements. A guy like Penn could make a few million annually from Italian or Jap liquor ads for a decade and we would have no real idea.
Anyway if you have like $25 mill before you're 40, which he easily could have, then its easy to start really accumulating wealth at a geometric pace as you get older, particularly with access to the kind of cash injections a really famous person like him can command at will. You can also own extremely expensive assets that actually appreciate, you can do shit like play the art game, you get the 'rich guy' investment opportunities that only come to the rich, and you often end up with tons of passive income from backend points, royalties, and IP that can all end up being substantial if you have a long, productive career.
In short, he's entertainment royalty with a couple of Oscar wins and a gazillion nominations. He has the movie star power and gravitas of old Hollywood, which is increasingly rare. He has never lost his prestige or A-list stature. He has been a Hollywood leading man for over three decades. That's easily going to generate that kind of net worth unless he's some kind of rouge spender asshole like MJ or Nicholas Cage.
He hasn't done anything good in a long time and the retarded shitlib stuff looms large for readers of a place like XO, so it seems weird to think he's so rich and famous. But he's really fucking rich and famous.

The money is probably all residuals from surfers ripping off his Spicoli character tho. |
