LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - There's something disconcerting in the fact that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen could buy and sell us all. The latest career move for the former "Full House " moppets is into television production at ABC Family, not that their portfolios weren't diverse enough.
According to an article in Fortune magazine last June, celebrating the 16th anniversary of their birth, the Olsen twins may not be old enough to vote, buy scratch tickets or drink in Canada, but they're filthy rich. Their Dualstar Entertainment has generated well more than one billion dollars in revenue in the past two years. As of last June, the Twins had produced nearly 40 videos, which had sold more than 30 million copies. Their books sold 29 million copies. Their dolls and albums were both selling briskly. Estimates of their personal wealth range anywhere from $38 million to well over $150 million. Either way, they aren't suffering from lack of pocket money.
