Robin Williams Net Worth $130 Million Reduced To $50M After Divorce Settlement, Money Woes Escalated After 'The Crazy Ones' Cancelled, Planned To Sell $35M Home. According to published reports, Robin Williams had a net worth of an estimated $130 million in 2012. However, Williams told Parade magazine that at one point he was near bankruptcy after his two divorces.

However, reports about Robin Williams being broke are hugely exaggerated, say sources close to the story. Yahoo.it shared that the hilarious comedian "did have his finances in order. Robin Williams reportedly didn't leave a note before taking his own life, but the actor did have his finances in order."

According to trust documents obtained by TMZ, Robin's kids will receive one third of their share at the age of 21, 50% at 25, and the full amount at the age of 30 and is independent of the actor's death: "Robin had a significant amount of money outside the trust and his current wife, Susan Schneider , will almost certainly receive a significant amount."

In 2013, films starring Williams grossed a whopping $5.1 billion in theaters around the world. At the time, Williams was quoted as saying by Parade magazine, ""Divorce is expensive," adding, "I used to joke they were going to call it 'all the money,' but they changed it to 'alimony.' It's ripping your heart out through your wallet."

Combined divorce settlements for William's first two wives came out to $30 million. Celebritynetworth estimates Robin Williams net worth as $50 million. Williams also told Parade, that he would sell his $35 million home, to cover his debt. He also sold his Napa valley ranch after he said he could not afford it.

"My life has been downsized," said the actor/comedian.

The real blow to his finances came when a sitcom 'The Crazy Ones' was cancelled after a season in May. A source close to the story said, Williams was in this 60s and he had to take a TV stint to cover expenses. That was different from what he imagined he would be doing at this stage in his life. Reports say that the cancellation of 'The Crazy Ones' had an impact on Williams and could have been a catalyst for his suicide.
