O.J. Simpson’s Net worth:

O.J. Simpson is an actor, sports commentator, and American football player with a $3 million fortune. Due to a robbery/kidnapping in Las Vegas in 2007, he is also a convicted criminal. Additionally, Simpson was held financially accountable for Ronald Goldman’s death. For the killings of Ron Goldman and his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson, Simpson was declared not criminally responsible in 1995. He wasn’t civilly held liable for Nicole’s passing. O.J. was made to pay the Goldman family $33.5 million in damages due to the Ron Goldman civil action. With interest, that amount now exceeds $40 million. Through the sale of various assets and mementos, about $500,000 was paid down.
