10. Robin Roberts ($27 million of estimated net worth)
Robin Roberts was a sportscaster for ESPN for fifteen years. She is well-known for her catchphrase on the network’s SportsCenter: “Go on with your bad self!”
Robin worked for both ESPN and ABC as news anchor. Until in 2005, she got promoted to co-anchor of ABC’s Good Morning America. Together with George Stephanopoulos, whom we discussed earlier, she made the program great again upon Diane Sawyer’s departure to another network.
After all these years, through her experience and achievements, she became one of the most respected TV personalities in United States. They admire her, especially after her battle with breast cancer.
Robin touched people’s heart with her struggle. She keeps fighting and she never lets her illness stop her career. Even when health struck her again in 2012 with MDS (myelodyplastic syndrome). The only time she took a leave from those TV programs was only to undergo some treatments.
This tenth richest TV pundit, with $27 million of estimated net worth, is a survivor. And she has been inspiring a lot of people. She is also the 8th highest-paid TV show host with $18 million of earning in one year.
