No questions asked, 82-year-old actor Burton Gilliam has enjoyed one of the most exciting lives ever! It all started before he even arrived in Hollywood, as he started off as a wrestler in the Coast Guard, winning 201 of his 217 fights. After leaving wrestling behind, Gilliam than became an firefighter, before finally making the jump to film. Finally, in the mid-1970s, he shot to stardom thanks to two movies: Paper Moon in 1972 and Blazing Saddles in 1973.

Afterward, Gilliam went on to star in even more hits, like Back to the Future Part III and Carlie’s Angels. While the actor still occasionally works today, with a net worth of $3 million, he can retire whenever he wants to!
