This is how much money Regis Philbin is actually worth

Regis Philbin may be famous for his work as a television host, but it turns out that he’s no stranger to the stock market. Along with ringing the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange in 2013, Philbin also plays the financial game himself.

In 2018, Philbin talked to AOL Entertainment about how he spends his days now that he’s retired, and revealed that staying involved with stocks is part of his routine. “While there are days I do miss working, it’s been a nice change of pace to focus more on relaxing and spending time with my wife Joy and our kids and grandkids,” he said. “I also continue to stay physically and mentally active by playing tennis and keeping up with the stock market.”

Philbin has also been known to share his thoughts on the market with CNBC, even offering up his stock picks in 2010 and doing the same again in 2014, showing off his investment knowledge and explaining why he had taken a chance on Elon Musk’s company. “I played with Tesla,” he said. “When it got real deep, real low. And then went up high. Made a lot of money. But all of a sudden it goes up and down, up and down. I’m waiting for it to go down that low again. It hasn’t.” 

If you’re looking for a stock market mentor, it seems like you might be able to look to Philbin for advice.
