evidence: Today, Whoopi Goldberg may be known for being a firebrand on "The View" to some, but that barely scratches the surface. Before she became a daytime talk show host, Whoopi Goldberg was one of the few actresses to become a coveted EGOT winner. Goldberg has taken home all of the industry’s coveted awards — and was, in fact, the first Black woman to do so, according to Vulture. [...] In short, Whoopi Goldberg has had a career filled with "firsts," and it’s no wonder, then, that she’s earned a $60 million net worth (per Celebrity Net Worth) for her groundbreaking career. Plus, she takes home an $8 million annual salary from "The View."
