Billionaire Vince? Forbes puts new estimate on Vince McMahon’s wealth

Forbes is now recognizing Vince McMahon as a billionaire. The magazine now estimates the WWE CEO’s personal wealth at $1.2 billion.

McMahon, a graduate of Fishburne Military School, just up the street from the headquarters of Top Rope Pro Wrestling in Waynesboro, Va., is an interesting rags-to-riches story, as the magazine notes that he grew up in a trailer park in North Carolina before joining and then eventually taking over his father’s wrestling promotion.

So yes, folks, it can be done. It’s not easy, but it can be done.
