Tyra Banksrose to the scene as a model in the 90s.
She later gained more success with her film roles inHigher Learning,Life-Size,Coyote Uglyand more.
But the speculation was that it’s because Tyra’s salary is so high.
It’s an expensive show to make because she gets a s**tload of money."
Despite her high net worth, the formerANTMhost is actually very frugal about her money.
“Even before my career, I was a saver,” she toldMoney.comin 2018.
Her savings actually started to become a problem.
She explained, “I was always more interested in experiences over things.
Things didn’t make me happy.
I saved saved saved.
But I saved to a fault.
About 15 years ago, my accountants pulled me aside, and they were like ‘Tyra.
You’re not spending money.
You’re just giving it away to the government.
you’re gonna wanna spend some damn money!’
So we created something called the ‘F Account.’
Which was the ‘frivolous account.’
And I had a budget to spend frivolously for the year, every year.
I needed that to feel safe.”
