The Canadian actor, Ryan Reynolds, has earned his name as a brilliant actor in Hollywood. Lately, he has been trying to establish himself as a businessman as well. The actor has been a part of Mint Mobile for around 3 years. Recently, he sold his stakes to T-Mobile for $1.3 billion. But did you know, the Canadian actor could walk away with a little less but a sizeable amount?

After buying the stakes of Mint Mobile in 2019, the actor owned almost 25% of the company. When the Deadpool actor bought the stakes back then, he even showcased his classic sense of humor by joking about it. He said he would pay himself monthly $15. He recently sold his part of the stakes to another telecom giant while potentially walking out with $300 million. Although no one from the company nor did the actor reveal the portion that the actor sold, as reported by CBS News.

Not only Mint Mobile but also T-Mobile didn’t reveal any more information than the public already knows. In 2020, the father of four also sold his stakes from Aviation Gin after being a part of it for 3 years. And now he sold his stakes from the wireless service provider.
