The Five (Self-Made) Richest Kids

JoJo

she started her career as a singer and has released two albums so far. With these only selling five million copies worldwide, JoJo's brand is entering the world of acting and movies. Under her real name of Joanna Noelle Levesque she has so far been in two films. It's good to see a young singer make the bold and unusual step in to acting.

Tyler James Williams

Just ahead of JoJo is the young African-American actor Tyler James Williams is best known for his role in the Sitcom "Everyone Hates Chris" which everyone loves. So, it is more than a little surprising that he is not worth more than 1.2 million dollars.

Abigail Breslin

The first time the world clapped eyes on Abigail Breslin it was when she played Bo Hess in the 2002 M. Night Shyamalan movie ¡Signs'. Although this was her breakthrough role, she is best remembered for her Academy Award Nominated role in the movie ¡Little Miss Sunshine.' She is the fourth youngest person ever to have been nominated. She didn't get the award but she had more fun co-presenting the ceremony and, after all, she has many more years and the acting promise to be nominated again in the future.

Vanessa Anne Hudgens

High School Musical represents the Brave New World of the teen sing-along movie. The ¡High School' series represents a guilty pleasure most people over the age of eleven will seriously not admit to being a fan.

That being said, it has made its young female star, the walking mouthful-of-syllables that is Vanessa Anne Hudgens a seriously rich young lady. Worth around three million notes, this young lady is taking her own acting very seriously. So seriously in fact that she has recently become the spokesperson for Neutrogena. This skin treatment retains at its cheapest at around two dollars. One can imagine the thrifty Ms Hudgens - at the appearance of a humungous zit - dashing down to the local store to grab a few bottles. It's so nice when famous kids stay down to earth.

Hayden Panettiere

Ms Hayden Panettiere may have a name that sounds like a small Italian loaf but she has endeared herself to millions of science fiction fans as the Cheerleader who cannot be killed in the hit TV series ¡Heroes'. At seventeen years of age, the role of Claire ¡Kill Me' Bennett may have brought her to worldwide attention but she is no stranger to the screen, big or small, and has been acting since the age of five.
