3. Hilary Swank
This Oscar winner definitely started from the bottom. Even before she ended up homeless, she and her family struggled with money issues. Swank grew up in a trailer park and lived in a car with her mother when she was a young adult.
She dropped out of school at the age of 15, and Swank and her mother went to Los Angeles with only $75 to their names. When they got to California, they did not have enough money to get an apartment, so they lived out of their car for a couple of weeks.
Swank got her big break when she was in her early 20s. She got the role in Boys Don’t Cry, a role that would lead to an unbelievable turnaround – an Oscar award for Best Actress. Even though she only made about $3000 for that role, Swank’s worries were over. She is currently one of the most sought after actresses in Hollywood.
