Sam Gores net worth: Sam Gores is an American talent agent who has a net worth of $150 million dollars. Sam Gores is best-known for being the chairman of Paradigm Talent Agency. He is one of the most-powerful agents in the entertainment industry. His brothers Alec Gores and Tom Gores are both private equity multi-billionaires.

He was born in Nazareth, Israel to parents of Lebanese and Greek descent. The family eventually relocated to Flint, Michigan when Sam was 14 years old. He began working as a butcher when he was 16, and was on his way to a career as a grocer by the time he was 18. He caught the acting bug a few years later, and enrolled in the American Academy of the Dramatic Arts, which had just opened a school on the West Coast. He realized fairly quickly that while he liked performing, he found working behind the scenes to be more interesting. Over the course of the next seven years, he would work for three different agencies, slowly building a positive reputation in Hollywood.

In 1986, he opened his own agency, SGA Representation, Inc. SGA went on to become the very powerful agency known as Paradigm, for which Mr. Gores currently serves as Chairman. Past and present clients have included Adrien Brody, Chris Copper, Neil Patrick Harris, Aerosmith, Coldplay, The Black Eyed Peas, and The Fray, among many other successful artists.

Real Estate: In 2012 Sam paid $2.35 million for a condo in West Hollywood. He sold this property in 2014 to book publisher Judith Regan for $3.1 million. Also in 2012 Sam sold a mansion to “The Hangover” director/producer Todd Phillips for $17.25 million.

In 2013 he paid $9.75 million for a home not far from his former condo.
