The year-old actor is the wealthiest sibling in the family. His endless creativity dragged Fox's attention, and they wanted to give Wayans his own show. He then pitched In Living Color. It involved a lot of the people I knew from doing stand-up in the clubs.

I put them all through the process — they read the script and performed. Then they did improvs. Then, if they made it to the finals, they had to do their act on stage," he said.

All six Wayans brothers are involved with various businesses, but not all of them are equally wealthy. The Wayans brothers are a family of African-American entertainers who made their names known in the film industry.

Their single mother raised them after their father left them when they were young children. They later moved to New York City from Maryland, where they struggled financially as kids. Still, they managed to make something out of themselves through hard work and persistence.

Using humor as an outlet for stress and poverty in their early lives, they became successful comedians. Blood is thicker than water, huh? And while there was a time when it seemed like Hollywood wouldn't cast the Wayans brothers anymore , Keenen Ivory Wayans, Damon Wayans, Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans have each managed to stick around and remain relatively successful while also earning themselves rather impressive fortunes.

Thanks to the fact that Keenen and Damon were the creators of the epic skit show In Living Color, the family was able to make a name — or rather, names — for themselves and branch out into other projects.
