Who are world’s richest kids?

They’re under 15, but that isn’t stopping them from raking in the dough from music, movies, TV and more. Julie Dam of People magazine reveals the identities of these real-life Richie Riches.

Now are the some of the richest kids in the world and the money they’re making. The current issue of People magazine features some very famous faces who are under 15, and cashed in on concert tours, movies, TV shows and more. Julie Dane is People’s senior editor. Julie, good morning!

Good morning.

So, when you looked at some of these kids, were you amazed at the money they’re making?

Yeah, I mean it’s nothing like when I was a kid, that’s for sure.

That’s right. Well, let’s get started with the big to who know, Miley Cyrus. I mean this girl is a machine.

She is in the industry and to herself. And she only has the biggest kids show on cable; she has this huge concert tour, she was taking home a million dollars a week.(Wow) She just signed a 7-figure book deal and this year her merchandise sales for Hannah Montana are expected to hit a billion dollars.

A billion? A billion with a “B”!

And she gets a percentage of that, right?

She does. She gets a percentage of it I mean she’s really raking in it, but (Ok, go ahead) she does have her you know, had on her shoulders and her mum says that most of the money is going into an investment fund that she won’t touch it until she’s 18.

Wow… and where is all that besides all that money, I mean, does she seem like she's handling this stuff ok?

Er, she seems like an incredibly mature, grounded girl which is great to see.

Another one of her Disney stable mates, this is such a hot band, the Jones Brothers. I mean, the Disney basically resurrected them and now they’re just pulling in the dough.

They’re huge. They just signed a multimillion-dollar two-year-concert deal. They’re taking in a 12 million on this concert tour among the three of them. And, you know, they’re also super grounded and they have a good family around them, they give 10% to charity. So it’s a good story.

And then what cash do they have? What do they like?

They do spend money. They give their mum a really nice diamond watch, they buy new computers, and Nick, the youngest, he’s 15 has just shot up 1500 dollars for a pair of shoes.

Yeah, let’s gonna say that they’re all kind of clothes horse.

Yeah, they’re definitely natty dressers.

All right. Abigale Breslin, who is just a fantastic young actress, 12 years old and her price per movie is doing OK.

She’s got two million in a movie, but, you know, just because she’s an Oscar nominated actress and makes two million. She’s still a normal 12-year-old girl. She likes, you know, American-girl dolls and Jones Brothers.

And does she like working with these big stars?

Yeah, I mean, she’s having an incredible career already.

Dakoda Fannine who’s such a terrific actress, she’s now 14 years old and she’s doing pretty well per movie.

She’s a total Hollywood player, I mean, she can open a movie, she’s making four million in a movie now. She’s worked for some of the biggest stars in the business.

And she doesn’t get an allowance?

She doesn’t get an allowance; she says that her parents want her to feel like she wants to help out, not because she has to help out, on the house.

And she’s also done some modeling too, hasn’t she?

She has, she did a gap item among other things.

Now, this young man is quite the comic actor. He’s on Two and a Half Men, Angles T. Jones, and TV stars, you know I mean they usually make a one million a season or more. He’s doing all right for a 14-year-old?

Yeah, he’s making 1.2 million per season which makes him one of the biggest stars in Hollywood.

And for a young man like this, I mean he still has his whole career ahead of them, but there is always that those child actors, there’s always a dangerous, a dangerous position because you always hear about these child-actors become a flameout early.

Right, you know, but for every, you know, true Hollywood story, you hear about people going off the rails, we do have people like Brookshield and July Foster who actually just started with Abigale Brastle in the movie, who have shown that you can't have a long great career.

And then Tyler James Williams, who’s the star in Everybody Hates Chris, ah this again, seemed like a very grounded young man.

Yes, he’s also making 1.2million dollars a season and he said when he got the role that he's good at, making fried bologna sandwiches, picking good movies and making money.

Yeah, and when you look at all these young actors, what’s the common theme you see amongst them, the actors in these country-goers?

Well these really successful ones, like Miley and Jonas Brothers have really good families around them and they’re clearly not in this on their own, they have families to help them along and they seem to be totally normal kids.

Great, well, Julie Dane, thank you so much.

Thanks for having me.

And you can read more about these Hollywood kids and their families in this week’s issue of People magazine that hits newsstands today.

这些孩子都还不到15岁，但是并没有阻止他们在音乐，电影，电视等行业崭露头角。People杂志的Julie Dam披露了这些现实生活中的小富豪的身份。

现在是世界上最富有的小孩和他们赚的钱的数量。这一期的People杂志为大家报道了几个15岁以下的非常出名的小孩，这些孩子在音乐会，电影，电视选秀和其他节目中赚取了大量钞票。Julie Dane是People杂志的高级编辑。Julie，早上好。

早上好。

那么，当你看到其中一些孩子的时候，你有没有为他们赚这么多钱感到诧异？

是的，这和我的孩提时代完全不同，当然。

是的。那么，让我们从大腕Miley Cyrus开始。我的意思是，这个女孩像台机器。

这个女孩是单枪匹马入主娱乐圈的。她出台了最大的儿童选秀节目，并且举办了巡回演唱会，每周赚100万美元。她还和Hannah Montana签订了一笔高达七位数的交易合同。预期今年她的唱片销售收入高达10亿美元。

10亿？

她可以获得其中的百分之一，是吗？

是的。如果真能达到这个销量的话她就能得到那么多钱。她确实这么出色。但是她的妈妈说，大部分钱都存入投资基金，知道她满18岁才能花这笔钱。

那么，除了这些钱之外，她是怎么处理的呢，我的意思是说，看上去她能不能对一切事情应对自如？

她看上去非常成熟，非常不可思议。

另外一个她在Disney的稳定的同事是一个热门乐队Jones Brothers。我是说，Disney让他们复活，现在他们只是和稀泥而已。

他们也非常厉害。他们刚刚签订了一个价值数百万美元，为期两年的演唱会合同。他们三人在这个音乐会中赚取了1200万美元。你知道，他们也非常有家庭背景，他们将收入的10%捐献给慈善机构。这是好事。

那么他们是怎样处理这些钱的呢？

他们花了这些钱。他们给自己的目前买了一个非常漂亮的钻石手表，还买了新电脑，年龄最小的Nick花费1500美元为自己买了一双鞋。

是的，我们应该说 ，他们都非常喜欢漂亮的时装。

是的，他们穿着都非常讲究。

好的，Abigale Breslin是一位年仅12岁的出色的女演员。她每部电影的酬劳都很高。

她一部电影可以赚200万美元。但是，她仅仅因为获奥斯卡最佳女演员提名奖就赚了200万美元。她仍然是一个普普通通的12岁女孩，她也喜欢么过女孩喜欢的玩具和Jones Brothers。

她喜欢和这些大牌明星一起演出吗？

是的，我的意思是，她目前的职业已经令人非常难以置信了。

Dakoda Fannine也是一位出色的女演员，今年14岁，她在每部电影中的表现都很好。

她是一个完全的好莱坞演员。我是说，她现在每部电影可以赚400万美元。她为一些最大牌的明星工作。

她没有花费限额是吗？

是的，她说，她的父母希望她感到自己想要帮助家庭，而不是她必须帮忙。

她确实也做出了榜样，是吗？

是的，在其他方面她也做了很多出色的事情。

这个年轻人是一名喜剧演员，他在两个半男人，Angles T. Jones和电视明星中都偶出色表现。你知道，他每季的收入都在100万美元以上。

是的，每季电视剧他可以赚120万美元，这使他成为好莱坞最大的明星之一。

对于这样的年轻人来说，我是说，他前程似锦，但是我那些童星处于很危险的境地，因为我们总是听说他们慢慢地销声匿迹。

是的，你知道，但是，对于每一个真正的好莱坞神话来说，你经常听说他们做出出轨的事情，我们确实见过像Brookshield和July Foster这样的人，他们最开始的时候和Abigale Brastle一起拍电影，最终却告诉我们，你的事业不会一帆风顺。

另外一个是Tyler James Williams，他是人人都恨克里斯中的明星。这个小伙子看上去也很有背景。

是的，他每季也能赚120万美元。他说，他很擅长这个角色，既能演好电影又能赚钱。

是的，当你看到这些演员的时候，你在他们中间看到的共同点是什么呢？

他们都非常成功，Miley 和Jonas Brothers有非常好的家庭背景，他们并不是个人打拼，而是有家庭来帮助他们，看上去他们是完全正常的孩子。

很好，Julie Dane非常感谢你。

也非常感谢你。
