What Does Money Mean to Star of Crazy Rich Asians?

Hollywood star Henry Golding had his breakout role in Crazy Rich Asians in 2018, a film that eventually grossed over US$238 million (S$303 million) at the worldwide box office.

The man himself was said to have a net worth of around US$3 million in 2022, according to the South China Morning Post.

He is currently starring in The Old Guard 2 on Netflix with Charlize Theron and has been in films like The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare, released in 2024, alongside the likes of Henry Cavill.

He might even be returning to his role as Nick Young in a Crazy Rich Asians television series, which is said to be in the works.

But what does money mean to Golding himself?

It is all about finding stable growth, he says.

The thrill of the market and playing with the volatility of stocks and shares do not appeal to Golding.

“I’d like to put money into something where I can sit on it for four to five years, and hopefully see a good return in the end,” he says.

The uncertainty of the acting business is also part of what prompted Golding to look into stable investments.
