5 Things You Didn't Know About Vince McMahon

#4. He grew up very poor

Money is not something Vince has had all his life.

Vince McMahon has not always been the billionaire that we know today. In reality, he spent his early childhood in great poverty. Vince McMahon Sr. left his mother when he Vince was just a baby. After that he had to live with his single mother in a trailer park for years.

Even after reuniting with his father at the age of 12, Vince was not as rich as you may have thought all these years. It must be remembered that back then, the WWWF was not the global brand that it is today.

Vince actually had to mortgage his house in order to host Wrestlemania 1. It's safe to say that the gamble paid off.
