Dawn Wells, 80 – $50K
Another star of Gilligan’s Island, Dawn Wells, is one of the two last surviving cast members of the show, apart from Tina Louise. But unlike Tina, Dawn Wells did reprise her role in all three of the reunion films, including Rescue from Gilligan’s Island and The Castaways on Gilligan’s Island. After the show, Wells mostly worked in theater and appeared in almost 100 productions. The now 80-year-old Wells did not accumulate a fortune in her career and does not exactly live an opulent lifestyle. That being said, in 2018, a GoFundMe campaign was set up in order to help the actress deal with her financial hardships.
