LEONARDO DICAPRIO

Much to everyone’s surprise, Leonardo DiCaprio grew up in poverty. He grew up in a small house in the rough part of Los Angeles. He confessed that during those days, it wasn’t unusual to see the darker side of life being surrounded by prostitutes and illegal substances in his neighborhood. Much of his success, he gives credit to his mother and saw acting as a way out of that life, which we all know he has already achieved. Now living at the other end of the spectrum, Leonardo has an estimated net worth of $260 million.

He also has the accolades to show for his hard work in the industry. Such awards include an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, and a BAFTA Award. It is truly heartwarming to know how a young aspiring Leanardo aspired of better days with the full support of his loving mother to then achieve his dreams.
