MONICA LEWINSKY | $1.5 MILLION

Monica Lewinsky entered the limelight after shedding light on having sexual encounters with the 42nd President of the United States, Bill Clinton. The scandal not only turned into a massive political scandal but also earned the former White House intern celebrity status. Subsequently, she turned the scandal into an opportunity for investments in multiple business ventures. Among these include a designer line of handbags, a spokesperson job for a dietary company, and a TV personality. After achieving reasonable success, she would take some time off from the public eye and move to London to finish her Master’s program in Psychology.

Today, the American activist is 48 years old and has an estimated net worth of $1.5 million. She is known for her stance against cyberbullying and has also written a popular essay on Vanity Fair magazine titles Shame and Survival.
