Ryan Reynolds billion dollar business portfolio revealed trends now
Ryan Reynolds got a huge boost to his bank account this week after T-Mobile purchased Mint Mobile, which Reynolds owns a partial stake in, for $1.35 billion.
The business is just one of many Ryan has ploughed his money and expertise into over the past few years.
The Canadian star's first acting job was on a teen soap called Fifteen where he earned just $150 an episode, it's a far cry from his bank balance now with the 45-year-old thought to be worth a whopping $150million.

Last month Variety reported that the production and advertising company is part of an ownership group for a new 1.2 million-square-foot studio being built in Ontario - which developers say will be the largest film and TV production hub in Canada.
The studio is one of the first projects for a $1.5 billion private-equity fund that will focus on real estate, sports, media and venture capital.
