1. Kelly Rowland
Kelly Rowland was a member of the world-famous group Destiny’s Child. After getting her first paycheck, she went to the grocery store and bought everything she and her family could not afford earlier, and had a huge party.
2. Gucci Mane
Growing up, money was always tight for Gucci Mane. His childhood was rough, and he never lived in a stable environment. So, when he got his first hefty paycheck, he decided to get himself a sweet, yellow Corvette.
3. Cindy Crawford
Yesteryear’s supermodel Cindy Crawford has appeared on numerous fashion magazine covers throughout her career. She spent her first paycheck on wallpaper for her home. Wise investment, we must say!
5. Donald Glover
The “This Is America” singer, Childish Gambino was brought up in a strict household. So when he landed a job as a writer for
30 Rock and got his first paycheck, he bought himself lots of candies.
6. Rupert Grint
Rupert Grint made a whopping $70 million, thanks to the successful
Harry Potter franchise. So what does a kid buy with so much money? Their childhood dream, obviously! In Rupert’s case, that happened to be a cool ice cream truck.
7. Matt LeBlanc
The
Friends star only had $11 in his wallet when he first auditioned for the show. So, when he received his paycheck, he treated himself with some hot dinner. Now we know why Joey doesn’t share food.

A pic from the Studio, when @kirkhammett (of @metallica , obviously) brought the famous guitar, "Greeny" over for a visit... It is the '59 Les Paul, once owned and played for many, many moons, by the incredible Peter Green from early days of Fleetwood Mac!!! I was and remain, somewhat, in shock!!! An incredible experience!!! The painting on the wall is one I made of an old friend... My old dog, Mooh, who sadly passed away back when i was away on location filming, "Public Enemies". He was a very gentle boy and i still miss him greatly!!!!

The actor is known for many of his roles, but Jack Sparrow from
Pirates of the Caribbean is our favorite. He bought his mother, Betty Sue, a horse farm in Kentucky. “I worshipped her,” he said in an interview with “Rolling Stone.”
9. Shaquille O’Neal
One of the greatest NBA players in history, Shaquille O’Neal bought himself a Mercedes with his first paycheck. He then went on and bought a car for his mother and father each. That’s how we blew one million in a single day.
10. Serena Williams
Instead of splurging her hard-earned money on expensive things, this tennis legend decided to save not some but all of it. Her first million-dollar check went straight into her bank account. Wise decision, Serena.
11. Rami Malek
Oscar-winner actor Rami Malek gifted himself an expensive espresso machine from his first-ever paycheck. If you’re an enthusiastic coffee lover, you already know that this is an excellent investment. Good choice, Rami!
