Who can ever forget the greatest television salesman of all time, Billy Mays? While the iconic commercial star sold everything from the Awesome Auger to Zorbeez, he remains most famous for his OxiClean ads. Mays started doing commercials for the cleaning products in early 2000 and continued until his untimely death in 2009.

Thanks to OxiClean, Mays was actually able to set up his own one-man production, creating all the ads in house. As a result, at the time of his passing, the star was worth a whopping $10 million! That means Mays was pulling it at least a million dollars a year thanks to his ad work.
