Amy Roloff | Reality-TV Star | $4.5 Million

Amy Roloff was among the stars of the TLC show The Little People, which chronicled her family and what life’s like having dwarfism. It is reported that they earned an estimated $40,000 for every episode, ensuring that the family would be able to live in comfort even after the show’s run. Now that her children are all grown up, we’re sure Roloff doesn’t have to worry about them needing student loans either!

Since being on the show, she also had a slew of appearances in other shows, such as The View, Jay Leno, Oprah, Good Morning, America, Celebrity Buzz, Celebrity Chopped, and the Rachel Ray Show. She has also written two autobiography books, Little People Big Values and A Little Me. In 2006, Amy released her own cookbook titled Short and Simply Family Recipes, published for her by WestWinds Press. The book featured 75 original family recipes, which surely many Americans have enjoyed by now. She also owns an online baking business called Amy Roloff’s Little Kitchen.
