8. Jim Carrey

Comedian/actor Jim Carrey did not have an easy childhood growing up in Ontario. Carrey has said, “My father was a musician who got a “regular job” to support his children. When he lost his job that’s when everything fell apart. We went from “lower middle class” to “poor”. We were living out of a van. I quit school at age 15 to begin working to help support my family as a janitor. I’d have a baseball bat on my janitor cart because I was so angry I just wanted to beat the heck out of something.” Although Carrey never received his high school diploma, that didn’t stop him from becoming one of the most successful comedians of our time. Carrey’s best comedic roles were in films like Liar, Liar, Dumb and Dumber, The Mask and the Ace Ventura series.
