Ginger Zee – $500,000
Ginger Renee Zuidgeest, better known as Ginger Zee, was always interested in meteorology and anchoring as well. So she dreamt of serving on TV as a weather reporter, where she could potentially satiate both her passions.
Her ambitions were fulfilled sooner than expected as Ginger was hired as a substitute forecaster on a weekend show. When people started recognizing her skills, she was offered various other permanent positions on acclaimed networks like ‘ABC.’ Eventually, the lady was offered a permanent job as the chief meteorologist on ‘Good Morning America!’ What an inspiring journey, don’t you think?,
