Star’s Net Worth: $120 million*
Annual Protection Cost: $2 million*
Angelina Jolie and her former husband, Brad Pitt, have six kids, so, understandably, they need the extra security. The couple’s former bodyguard, Billy Billingham, praised the couple for being dedicated to their kids’ safety. He also said that Jolie was constantly concerned that the kids could be taken for ransom.

The stars have a combined net worth that approaches $1 billion, so that’s not an outlandish fear. Billingham noted that he was impressed with Jolie’s time management skills, and she seemed to have time to “do everything.” Though Billingham has since moved on, Jolie still employs a team of security to protect herself and her children.
It’s not difficult to see why Ang would prefer to keep a solid team around her at all times. Her marriage to Pitt was highly-publicized and so was their split, so the actress often has to fend off paparazzi and adoring fans so she can get on with her life.
