When most people think about the highest-paid actors in the world, it is massive movie stars who come to mind first and foremost. For the most part, that makes a lot of sense since the most successful movie stars in the world get paid a fortune for the roles they take on. However, that doesn’t mean that television stars have anything to cry about. After all, actors who play the lead roles in successful series make so much money that it is mindblowing.
During Johnny Galecki’s long career, he has enjoyed more success as a television star than most budding actors could even dream of. Unsurprisingly, that has resulted in Galecki managing to amass the kind of fortune that could easily pay for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life. However, people who’ve become as successful as Galecki has been tend to lead rather extravagant lifestyles and he is no exception. With that in mind, it begs an obvious question, what does Johnny Galecki spend his gigantic net worth on?
Real Estate
Most of the time when people get rich, there are a few things that they quickly spend their money on including vacations and real estate. Of course, Johnny Galecki was successful long before The Big Bang Theory so he has been rich for quite some time. Still, Galecki has spent a lot of his personal fortune on real estate over the last several years.
One of the properties that Johnny Galecki has bought is a Santa Margarita, California ranch. According to the reports, Galecki spent 1.2 million on the 3,600 square foot residence that included 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms. On his property, there also was a 4,000-square-foot barn-style workshop that contains a space big enough to hold a tractor or RV. In the same building as the workshop, there also was a 1,000-square-foot unfinished two-bedroom and one-bathroom apartment with an outside entrance. His property also contained 7 acres of vineyard, several ponds, and a pair of large water tanks.
Assuming that Galecki liked his ranch home, the way things played out was pretty sad. After all, the main home on the property wound up catching fire and the resulting damage was quite serious. As a result, when Galecki ultimately sold the property, he was forced to take a loss since he could only get $825,000.
After selling his ranch, Johnny Galecki wound up buying a Hollywood Hills home that came with quite the pedigree. After all, Ben Stiller used to own the home until he sold it to Jason Statham in 2011 for $7.325 million. After Statham lived in the home with his longtime partner, model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, for 4 years, Galecki bought the home for $9.2 million.
According to reports, Johnny Galecki’s Hollywood Hills home is pretty amazing. Situated on a half-acre property, the land that surrounds the home is populated by a lot of lush greenery. When it comes to the home itself, it is 5,300 square feet in size and it contains 5.5 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms. On top of that, the property also contains a 2 bedroom guest house. Fortunately for fans with a lot of money at their disposal, if they want to know how Johnny Galecki lives, the home can be rented for $45,000 per month with a $135,000 deposit.
Driving In Style
When Johnny Galecki portrayed his popular The Big Bang Theory character, he dressed down and drove durable but mostly unremarkable cars. In reality, whenever Galecki is seen in public when he isn’t portraying a character, he wears high-end clothes that almost certainly cost a pretty penny for him to buy. Similarly, when it comes to the vehicles that he uses to get around, Galecki has spent a sizable piece of his net worth on expensive vehicles that are a lot of fun to drive.
Over the years, Johnny Galecki has been caught on camera driving motorcycles including several vintage models. For example, it is known that at one time Galecki owned a Harley Davidson Softail Deluxe. While there is no way to know exactly how many motorcycles Galecki has bought over the years, it is clear that he has been passionate about riding them for a long time. After all, it is known that when they were young, his future The Big Bang Theory co-star Mayim Bialik invited Galecki to her 16th birthday party. Galecki never made it though since he got into a motorcycle accident on his way there.
Of course, Johnny Galecki also regularly gets around in four-wheel vehicles he has bought. For example, Galecki owns a 2019 Suburban with a standard 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 engine and a 2019 Sonata Sport. Of course, neither of those vehicles is overly expensive. However, Galecki spent a lot more money on Tesla Roadster which would have cost him a small fortune. With that in mind, it is a good thing that Galecki has a $100 million fortune according to celebritynetworth.com.
