George Clooney is so rich that he can refuse a 35 million dollar advertising fee for a day's work.

To explain his decision "I was offered $35 million for a day's work in an airline commercial, but I talked to my wife about it and we decided it wasn't worth it.

In fact, he refused to sign with an airline whose home country had a human rights problem. Referring to his wife Amal Clooney's long-standing human rights work, George Clooney explained that the airline in question was associated with "a country that, while an ally, is sometimes questionable. "So I thought, 'Well, if it takes away a minute of sleep, it's not worth it,'" he continued.

He can afford it, George Clooney had sold four years ago his tequila company Casamigos for nearly a billion dollars and pocketed 40 million for the advertising "Nespresso".

His fortune is estimated at more than  600 million dollars.
 Real estate capital: $100 million.
 The profits from the sale of Tequila "Casamigos", at least 200 million net after taxes.
Nespresso's advertising revenues: 200 million dollars net.
His income from the cinema for 25 years: 100 million dollars.
