Jerry Mathers: ~ $3 Million

He was born as Gerald Patrick “Jerry” Mathers on June 2, 1948. He started acting at a very young age. He appeared in the show Leave It to Beaver at the age of nine. He took the lead role of Theodore “Beaver” Cleaver, who remained part of the show in all 234 episodes for six years. Soon after, he started appearing on the big screen in movies like This is My Love, Men of the Fighting Lady, and Trouble with Harry.

One notable thing about Mathers is that he was the first child actor who received a percentage of the merchandising revenue from a TV show. He reportedly had to cash in his retirement investment early to finish school, but that should be well worth it. He still has an estimated $3 million in his bank accounts and still has a good credit score, anyway. He tied the knot with his now-wife, Teresa Modnick in 2011, and has three children, Noah, Mercedes, and Gretchen.
