Vin Diesel, an actor, is thought to be worth $200 million. Vin Diesel was raised by his African-American adoptive father and astrologer/psychologist mother in a housing project for artists in New York City’s Greenwich Village without ever knowing his biological father. When he and his buddies broke into a theatre at the age of seven to vandalise it, he stumbled onto his first break in acting.
They were approached by a woman who promised them each a screenplay and $20 in exchange for coming every day after school. Vin’s budding career then moved from his father’s New York repertory group to the Off-Off-Broadway scene. He had a well-developed physique and, at the age of 17, decided to work as a bouncer at some of New York’s hottest clubs to supplement his income. He changed his name to Vin Diesel about this period.
