Canada's Richest Canadians
8. Mike Myers
Net Worth: $175 million
Jim Carrey isn't the only Canadian funnyman to make laughs highly lucrative. As the writer and star of the Austin Powers films, Mike Myers hit his first international home run with two out of the three movies cracking the top 100 for all time domestic gross. Both films also are hovering around the top 200 for all-time worldwide gross and let’s not forget all the merchandise he's profited from. But that’s not all Myers would make. His career later went into the stratosphere with the Shrek series of movies. He earned at least $10 million on Shrek 2 and $14.2 million on Shrek the Third and that's not counting a percentage of the box office, Shrek Forever After and Shrek the Halls. Did we mention all the merchandise he made from this series too?
