The American actor has an estimated net worth of $215 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Barr Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Allen Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderbarr - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Matt) and a fashion line called “Matt Barr Seduction”.
