Parker Schnabel: TV personality – €6.5 million

For Parker Schnabel golden times have dawned in the truest sense of the word. The mid-twenties is not only a successful prospector, but

also star of the realty television series Alaskan Gold Rush , which is now in its 10th season. His passion for prospecting for gold was practically born in his cradle, because both his grandfather and his father showed him how to dig for gold in the family gold mine. After high school, he invested the money originally intended for his college education into his own mining company. Today the youngster has an estimated 6.5 million euros in his account – and with his entrepreneurial spirit this should only be the beginning.
