Reddit is a website broken up into infinite sub categories allowing users to come together to discuss, argue, and communicate about everything and anything. A big draw for the site that is gaining more and more popularity is their AMA subreddit, which stands for “Ask Me Anything”. Tons of celebrities have started doing AMAs and the trend is only rising; in fact, some impressive names have already done them. These are the richest people to do an AMA on Reddit.

5. Will Ferrell – $80 Million

Will Ferrell is a big comedian and he delivered the exact type of AMA you’d expect. It was full of bizarre but fitting jokes and responses that entertained the millions of users. The AMA even had a hand in the drum battle Ferrell had with Chad Smith. The Redditors submitted multiple comments about how the two look alike, to which Ferrell responded saying they are the same person.

4. Bill Murray – $120 Million

Bill Murray did an AMA in January of 2014 to promote his latest movie at the time, Monuments Men. Murray answered a good amount of questions pertaining to his movies and career, as well as fun interaction with fans. He typed out happy birthday for a user but provided tons of multi paragraph in depth responses for his fans.

3.  Snoop Lion – $120 Million

Snoop Lion easily had one of the best AMAs there have ever been. The musician received 24,867 comments and provided amazing responses to as many as he could. Snoop hung around the website for hours and tried his best to respond to everyone. The AMA was filled with all types of questions that led to hilarious and amazing responses. Snoop even asked himself a question and answered it. He has become a regular Redditor since and will turn up on random pages commenting.

2. Madonna – $1 Billion

Pop icon Madonna did an AMA around a year ago that generated a decent discussion with 12,113 total comments. She answered a lot of questions and was able to have fun and answer all questions; serious or funny. The highlight of Madonna’s AMA was when Snoop Lion commented asking when the pair would be going on a canoe ride.

1. Bill Gates – $76 Billion

Bill Gates has actually participated in two AMAs on Reddit so far, but all of them are thorough and sincere. The Bill Gates AMAs have received a total of just under 50,000 comments together and he has also posted content to other parts of the website. What’s great about Bill Gates’ is he never tries to push anything on the users and always sticks around to answer a ton of questions.
