Discover the size of the fortune of the protagonist of the series ‘Malcolm in the Middle’

Frankie Muniz, the protagonist of the series Malcolm in the Middle, revealed the incredible fortune he has amassed thanks to his career as a teenage actor in the 2000s.

Actor Frankie Muniz, who during the 2000s played the super intelligent teenager dealing with a large and dysfunctional family in the successful series Malcolm in the Middle, revealed he became a millionaire before turning 19.

Muniz, now 38 years old, is participating in the Australian reality show I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! and during a conversation with his fellow contestants, he shared that by the age of eighteen he had already accumulated a fortune of $40 million.

The reality show participants were discussing the comments and criticisms they receive on social media when Muniz confessed he used to retaliate against online insults: “This kid wrote: ‘I’m sorry, but your acting is just awful’. And I was in a movie and thought: ‘Yeah, it is, but you know what’s not awful? Retiring at 19 with $40 million. Good luck moving out of your mom’s house before 35.”

Muniz revealed he no longer responds to haters and, when a fellow contestant questioned whether he had earned enough money to retire from work completely, the star of Malcolm in the Middle replied yes:“Oh, 100 percent”; “But I’m neurotically motivated. I’ve always worked, since I was 8 years old. I don’t know how to live in the moment and not focus on what I’m going to do next.”

Currently, Muniz no longer works as an actor; instead, he races cars and lives in Arizona with his wife and their 2-year-old son.
