Arnold Schwarzenegger Net Worth

From body builder to actor to politician, it’s safe to say Arnold Schwarzenegger has earned a pretty penny in his lifetime. The Austrian-born 71-year-old found fame by rising up the ranks of body building competitions in his late teens. Today, he has a net worth of $400 million.

Growing up in a small Austrian village called Thal, Schwarzenegger found an early passion in the gym. He became known as the “Austrian Oak,” and soon enough, at 18 years old, he won the Junior Mr. Europe Contest in 1955.

Two years later, Schwarzenegger took home the prize for Mr. Universe. Using the money he’d racked up from body building, the fitness buff headed to America in 1968 with $27,000 to his name.
