Being a celebrity has its pros and cons. Having a luxurious life and a high credit score is one of the benefits of being a celebrity. However, there are still some who choose to live a quiet life and retire from show business. They decide to get a degree and become lawyers or teachers and prefer to enjoy their life away from the public’s eyes. For some, they might not appear in front of the camera anymore but opt to work behind it as a director, writer or producer. Some of these Hollywood stars might have been able to live a retired life thanks to their investments and businesses.
Kirk Cameron – Religion
Kirk Cameron rose to fame after playing the role of Mike Seaver on Growing Pains. However, he probably lost interest in acting since he decided to become a full-time author and religious activist instead. When he was working on Growing Pains, he converted as a born-again Christian. The drastic change in religious beliefs probably contributed to the fact that Kirk no longer wanted anything to do with his sinful past.
Kirk even wanted the scripts changed because he felt it wasn’t appropriate. He then appeared in 2017’s Extraordinary because he has a mission on his religious walk to become a man worthy to be called a follower of Christ. He is also great at money management as he has a net worth of $20 million, and it seems that Kirk has donated quite a lot of money to religious causes, adding to the fact that he is a changed man.
