Teresa Giudice: $414,000 in debt. The 43-year-old Real Housewives of New Jersey star served almost a year in federal prison for her financial scams, and she and her husband are flat broke despite her cookbooks, hair products and wine lines. She has agreed to give the government twenty-five percent of her Bravo salary towards restitutions when she films again.
Tamra Judge: $800,000. The monster mom has not been as successful as her co-stars at raking in the bucks.

Melissa Gorga: $1.5 Million. The 36-year-old Real Housewives of New Jersey star is worth at least a million, along with her real estate developer husband.

Vicki Gunvalson: $7 Million. The 53-year-old insurance entrepreneur created her own wealth as a small business owner, a fact she routinely brags about on The Real Housewives of Orange County.
NeNe Leakes: $12 Million. When she starred on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Leakes was the fan favorite and the top paid woman in the franchise, and she returned the favor by bringing in the highest ratings too. A savvy business woman, Leakes, 47, parlayed her reality career into roles on Broadway, The Celebrity Apprentice and even a sitcom, The Normal.
Ramona Singer: $18 Million. Money doesn't go as far in the Big Apple, but Real Housewives of New York City star Singer, 59, was able to accumulate her wealth via her fashion line and other business ventures.
Shannon Beador: $20 Million. Before her husband was caught cheating on her, the Real Housewives of Orange County blonde built up a small fortune with him in Southern California.
Bethenny Frankel: $25 Million. Real Housewives of New York City star Frankel, 45, raked in a hefty $2 million per season for the show, but her cookbooks, novels and selling her Skinnygirl liquor line are what earned her the big bucks. She went through a nasty divorce and had to fork out some money to her ex, but she remained solidly wealthy.
Heather Dubrow: $30 Million. The wealthiest of the Real Housewives of Orange County, the 46-year-old was a working actress before reality TV fame. But her husband, plastic surgeon Terry Dubrow brought in the big bucks with his lucrative practice.
Kandi Burruss: $35 Million. The Real Housewives of Atlanta's wealthiest woman, Burruss was a successful singer, song writer and producer before becoming a reality star. The 39-year-old was an established force in the music industry, where she earned her millions.
