DANNY KAYE — CADILLAC 1956, EST. $4,600
Danny Kaye will be remembered as a charismatic actor, but the American entertainer also dabbled in singing, dancing, physical comedy, pantomimes, and even philanthropic activities. He piled up an enormous net worth by acting in films and performing comedy at summer hotels and camps.
Danny, who died in 1987, could have had easily splurged on luxury cars and houses with his earnings. The fact that he went for a Cadillac 1956, one of the most expensive rides of that era, came as no surprise as Danny had enough money to live his life to the fullest. Cadillac was a preferred choice of Hollywood’s who’s who back in the 1950s. He shelled out some $4,600 to snap up the car, and that was quite a huge amount back then.
