5. Jim Carrey

Carrey grew up in extreme poverty and was forced out of school to work full-time as a janitor to help support his family.

Jim, his parents and his three siblings were, at this time, living in a van, in really poor conditions. He used to carry a baseball bat to work because he was so angry that he just wanted to smash something.

Luckily for us, he didn’t. When his parents became more financially stable, Carrey had more time to work the comedy scene where he was discovered.
