How does Victoria Prinicipal have 100K to donate to frivolous ballot measures? Maybe there’s big money in skin-cream infomercials.

Well, she was one of the main stars of a very successful long-running dramatic television series, back in the day.

Maybe she didn't blow all her earnings like so many do out there.

Vicky’s net worth is listed at $200 mil.
Apparently she got some good investment advice along the way.

Not maybe! No question VP made lots of money in the 70’s & 80’s doing Dallas. However, as (I can only assume) she was an actor on versus an owner of the show, she got paid per her employment contract and sees no further money from her reruns...I would venture to say that her earnings from skin cream et al are quite probably 5 times what she earned from working on the show.

I once worked w/Connie Stevens on a project. She too has a line of beauty stuff. When you consider her TC career was in the 60’s when pay was not much in inflation-adjusted terms, believe me, what she makes from skin cream is orders of magnitude greater than what she ever made in TV or film/

Likewise, I would bet you that George Foreman has made at least 20x on Geo Foreman grills than he ever made boxing.

Seinfeld? Jerry owned at least part of the show. Kramer, George, and Elaine made plenty of money from their roles, millions. But Jerry (and Larry David) is/are likely billionaire(s).

There IS big money in skincare, and also, she may have “married well.”

$5 Victoria Principal Net Worth $200 Million Dollars.
If an actress is smart and in a hit show they should go into a clothing line or beauty products or jewelry or all of these.
