Anderson Silva Net Worth $18 Million

Anderson da Silva was born on April 14 in 1975,. He spent his childhood in San Paulp, Brazil, together with his three brothers and sisters. As his family was considered to be less than upper-class, he had some difficulties in the early years, when Silva decided to practice ju-jutsu. Ju-jutsu was actually a pretty prestigious hobby, and the lessons were mostly attended by kids of rich parents. But Silva managed to do everything on his own and had great results. However, ju-jitsu did not become the main source of earning money for Anderson Silva. Silva‘s net worth started to rise only when he decided to try himself out in Muay Thai when he was 16 years old.

Silva started to earn his net worth while still not a professional martial artist. Silva was working as a clerk and even worked in McDonalds: it was the job he had to do in order to help his parents to pay all the bills. Talking about his professional career and the increase of Silva‘s net worth, he started to be recognised as a popular martial artist only in the 1990‘s. Actually Silva did not lose a single fight until 2000 – then Silva was defeated by Luiz Azedero. However, it didn‘t do a lot of harm to Silva‘s career and net worth established by him – he was already known as one of the best fighters, and after only two years de Silva had already managed to defeat former UFC Champion, the famous Carlos Newton. All the victories by Anderson de Silva led him to be on the list of the greatest martial artists, and today he is still active.

Talking about Silva‘s career as an actor, he made his debut in year 2009, when he played in the famous movie „Never Surrender“, which was produced by Hector Echavarria and released on April 28. A. Silva played one of the main roles, together with B. J. Penn and Heath Herring. After a successful beginning in films, Anderson in the same year played King Anaconda in the movie entitled „Hell‘s Chain“, and Silva‘s net worth was increased even more again. Later he also appeared in „Till Death Do UsPart 2‘, in „Worms“ voicing Hairy, in “Tapped Out“, and in „Monday Nights at Seven“.
