"Whether you're one of the millions of viewers who tuned into Bridgerton, or are a longtime fanatic of Grey's Anatomy, you've heard of Shonda Rhimes. She's one of the most successful creators in television history, hitting a high as the industry's highest-paid showrunner in 2018. But despite her success, the self-made millionaire still hunts for the best deals and clips coupons-just like billionaire Warren Buffett."
"Some of Rhimes' most famous shows include the likes of How to Get Away with Murder, Scandal, and Grey's Anatomy-which Disney, the parent company of ABC, said brought in more than $2 billion. By 2017, she ditched traditional TV and made the leap to streaming, signing a five-year deal with streaming giant Netflix reported to be worth between $100 million and $300 million."
Shonda Rhimes built a television empire with hits such as Grey's Anatomy, Scandal, and How to Get Away with Murder, generating billions for networks. Her personal net worth is estimated at $240 million, and she signed a five-year Netflix deal reported between $100 million and $300 million after leaving traditional TV in 2017. Despite high earnings and industry acclaim as a former highest-paid showrunner, she maintains frugal habits like clipping coupons and hunting bargains. Warren Buffett provides a parallel example, remaining frugal while ranking among the world's richest and living in a modest Omaha home purchased in 1958.
