If you listen to interviews, Tom Hanks doesn’t obsess over his net worth. He once joked, “It’s all monopoly money anyway.” That’s the attitude, right? He seems more interested in writing novels, making weird typewriters, and being a grandpa.
So, how much is Tom Hanks worth? $400 million. But more importantly, he’s worth every penny of our attention because he’s one of the few rich folks who still feels like a regular guy. He’s the neighbor who’d bring you soup when you’re sick, even if he could buy the whole soup factory.
Next time you watch Cast Away and see him talk to a volleyball, just remember: that volleyball helped buy a few houses. And we love him for it.
