Celebrities You Thought Are Long Gone But They Are Still Alive & Kicking!

Glynis Johns – 99

Glynis Johns made her name by appearing in many films and Broadway shows. She worked together with Stephen Sondheim for A Little Night Music, with a song composed especially for her. It paid off, as she won a Tony for her performance. The actress also appeared in Mary Poppins and The Sundowners and even got an Oscar nomination too. Nowadays she can rest with the security of a good health insurance and credit score.

Jacqueline White – 100

Jacqueline Jane White only had a short career as a lead actress, but she definitely left her mark. As a UCLA student, she was spotted in a play and the rest is history. She’s known for showing off her talent and gorgeous looks in The Narrow Margin, as well as many other MGM and RKO films. With 5 children and many grandchildren to spend time with, her retirement investment is definitely paying off.

Janis Paige – 100

Janis Paige made a name for herself as a singer and actress. She rose to fame on Broadway, with Remains To Be Seen and The Pajama Game. Soon she was starring in films and television shows, leading to her very own star on the Walk of Fame. Yet it wasn’t always easy for her: she lost her voice for months due to bad vocal coaching, fearing she might never sing again. Her health insurance covered a good professional who coached her back to health. What a strong woman!

Bob Barker – 98

Bob Barker is a very popular television personality. Barker began his career in radio, where he showed his skills in talking to people and entertaining everyone with his charm. He started hosting game shows in 1956, with Truth or Consequences. His skills as a host also came in handy for beauty pageants, such as Miss USA and Miss Universe. He is most famous for hosting The Price Is Right. The host has been happily married to his high school sweetheart for years and years. He has been struggling with his health, though, recently, so hopefully, his $70 million net worth is more than enough to help him through tough times in retirement.

Eva Marie Saint – 98

Eva Marie Saint’s career has been an incredible journey. She has been in the business for 7 decades, achieving success after success and creating a $20 million fortune. Saint started out in television and quickly moved to big leading roles starring opposite Marlon Brando in On The Waterfront.

Though Hitchcock’s North By Northwest launched her into huge fame, she always remained humble. The actress always chose roles because she found them interesting, rather than focusing on money. She also never needed any divorce attorneys, as she was married to her husband for 65 years. What a true romance!

Dick Van Dyke – 97

Who doesn’t remember the lovable Dick Van Dyke in the famous Mary Poppins film? The multi-talented performer ruled musical films in his time with appearances in Bye Bye Birdie and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. He is widely recognized by Brits for doing the worst English accent around, but they do love him for it too! Though he danced and sung his way to become an official Disney Legend, he did face some dangers too. At 87 he was saved from his car, which moments later was engulfed in flames. We hope he did some serious thinking with regards to car accidents and bought a safer car. He can definitely afford it with a $30 million net worth!

June Lockhart – 97

June Lockhart is another American actress who was very big in the ‘50s and ‘60s. Her most famous performances are in television series Lassie and Lost in Space. She has also appeared on Broadway, winning a Tony Award for her performance. Lockhart’s talents were recognized with not one, but two stars on the famous Hollywood Boulevard. Sadly, she did need a divorce attorney twice in her life, but she still has a net worth of $10 million. She keeps herself busy with interesting projects, like video games and guest appearances.

Kim Novak – 88

Kim Novak had a great career in Hollywood. The actress started working for Columbia Pictures in 1954 and appeared in films with many huge names of the era. She may be most famous for her work in Hitchcock’s Vertigo but performed in many other films too. Novak took a break from acting to focus on her visual art and her ranch.

She sadly fell during horse riding and hurt herself pretty badly, hopefully leading to her being more cautious in case anything like that happened again. After recovering, she continued working on her art and poetry in the quiet atmosphere of her own home, enjoying her $15 million fortune.
