Let’s dive into one of Hollywood’s financially savvy power couples – Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis. These two aren’t just your regular Hollywood stars who got lucky with a few big roles. Nope, they’ve turned their acting careers into a full-blown financial empire that would make even the wolves of Wall Street raise their eyebrows.
While most celebs are busy spending their movie checks on exotic cars and private islands, these two have been quietly building a fortune that’s as impressive as their on-screen chemistry.
Breaking Down Their Massive Net Worth of $275 Million
Ready for some numbers that’ll make your paycheck feel like pocket change? Together,Ashton KutcherandMila Kunisare sitting pretty on a combined net worth of $275 million – yep, you read that right! Mila brings $75 million to the table while Ashton adds$200 millionto their fortune, but here’s the kicker: he’s not just another pretty face cashing in on Hollywood roles. This guy’s got some serious business chops.
His venture capital firm,A-Grade Investments, which he co-founded withGuy Osearyand Ron Burkle, has been crushing it in the investment world. In fact, during a2016 Forbes interview, Kutcher and Oseary revealed they turned their initial $30 million fund into a mind-blowing $250 million in just six years. Not bad for the guy who was stillstarring inTwo and a Half Menat the time, generating an impressive 8.5x return on investment!

Meanwhile, Mila’s not exactly counting pennies either. She’s built up her $75 million fortune mostly from her acting gigs. Get this – she earnsbetween $175,000 and $225,000 just for voicing Meg GriffinonFamily Guy(per episode!). But Mila wasn’t done yet. She hit the jackpot in 2012-2013 withTedandOz: The Great and Powerful, and by 2016, she was raking in$11 million a year. A big chunk of that came fromsome pretty sweet dealswith Gemfields jewelry and Jim Beam (because apparently, being awesome at acting wasn’t enough).

Oh, and just for fun, she and Ashton play real estate Monopoly in their spare time. They have a$2.8 million spotin Laurel Canyon, which was sold for $3.8 million in 2014. They also have a cute little $540,000 condo in West Hollywood (pocket change for them, really), which she bought in 2002, a $10.2 million Beverly Hills mansion they’ve already flipped for a profit, and a $10 million Santa Barbara area estate. Because when you’re this good at making money, why not buy all the houses?
From That ’70s Show to Now
Here’s a story that’ll make you believe in destiny: picture a 14-year-old Mila Kunis walking onto the set ofThat ’70s Show, having no idea she’d just met her future husband. While sparks didn’t fly immediately (thank goodness, given her age), both Ashton and Mila used the show as their springboard to stardom.
Kutcher went from playing the loveable goofball Kelso to landing major roles in movies likeNo Strings Attachedand taking on the challenge of portrayingSteve JobsinJobs. Meanwhile, Mila was busy proving she’s way more than just Jackie Burkhart, landing voice acting gigs and stunning critics with her performance inBlack Swan.
The best part? Years later, these two former co-stars would reconnect and turn their on-screen romance into the real deal, complete with marriage, kids, and a combined bank account that would make their teenage selves faint.
The No-Trust-Fund Parenting Approach
Hold onto your wallets, because this might be the most interesting part of Ashton and Mila’s financial story. Picture having $275 million in the bank and telling your kids they’re broke! That’s exactly what these two are doing, and their reasoning is pretty fascinating. When Ashtonsat down with Dax Shepardon theArmchair Expertpodcast, he said:
I’m not setting up a trust for them, we’ll end up giving our money away to charity and to various things. And so, if my kids want to start a business and they have a good business plan, I’ll invest in it but they’re not getting trusts. So, hopefully, they’ll be motivated to have what they had or some version of what they had.
Mila’s take on this whole situation is equally interesting, and she’s not pulling any punches. During an appearance onThe Kyle and Jackie O Show, she revealed
The one topic of conversation we had even prior to ever having kids was always, ‘How do you raise a child to not be an asshole?’ It’s so important because we both came from pretty solid poverty backgrounds and grew up very poor and are very much self-made and are very aware of what a dollar is worth. Nothing’s been handed to us. It’s a matter of teaching them from a very early age that, you know, ‘Mommy and Daddy may have a dollar, but you’re poor.’

Their perspective on this comes from a pretty genuine place. They know exactly what it means to earn every dollar, and they’re determined to pass that understanding on to their kids.
Building a Legacy Beyond Wealth
But wait, there’s more to this power couple than just saying “no” to trust funds. They’re actually putting effort into their investments. For example, their Beverly Hills home sure costs $10.2 million, but in a neighborhood where houses regularly sell for three or four times that amount, it’s practically modest living by Hollywood standards!
They’re showing that true wealth isn’t just about the number in your bank account – it’s about what you do with it. The coolest part? They’re writing their own rulebook on how to be wealthy in Hollywood while keeping it real, proving that you can have millions in the bank and still keep your feet firmly on the ground.
