This Is The Richest Member Of The Olsen Family

Presently, the Olsen twins are collectively worth $500 million, with each twin owning up to half of the net worth. This impressive sum comes from a variety of endeavors, including profitable acting careers, fashion brands, and real estate ventures (per Cosmopolitan). At just six months old (yes, you read that right), the Olsen twins took on the role of Michelle Tanner in "Full House." While the pair, who played the character in shifts to abide by child labor laws, only made $2,400 per episode in the beginning, that number soon jumped to $80,000 per episode in later seasons of the show (via The Washington Post).

Then, after starring in a number of films (remember the cinematic masterpiece "It Takes Two?"), the twins began building their fashion empire, which now includes luxury fashion brands The Row, which generates between $100 million and $200 million a year in sales according to Business of Fashion, and Elizabeth and James, which rakes in an estimated $89 million per year according to Cosmopolitan.

Mary-Kate Olsen, along with her ex-husband Olivier Sarkozy, also dabbled in real estate. Throughout the course of their relationship, the pair purchased and flipped several New York townhouses, often selling them for millions more than what they originally paid.

What's more, the Olsens are fairly private when it comes to their income, so their actual net worth could be much higher than an already-generous $500 million.
