Some stars have gone through a long way and bumpy road to escape extreme poverty or broken family and achieve success and financial security that they are entitled now.

AceShowbiz - One of silver-screen icons of her time, Demi Moore had a troubled past. Her biological father left her mother after a two-month marriage before Demi was born, and her mother had to endure two alcoholic stepfathers. Not only a dysfunctional family, but she also had impoverished childhood and had to live in trailer parks. At 15, she was raped by a man, who claimed that he paid Demi's mother to get access to the then-teenager to rape her.
The now-58-year-old beauty decided to make her own future when she was 16, leaving her family's house and quitting school in her junior year. She entered the entertainment industry in 1984 but found her break in 1986 when she starred in "About Last Night". Her other prominent roles include ones in 1990's "Ghost", 1992's "A Few Good Men" and 1997's "G.I. Jane". She now is estimated to own $200 million.
