    Kevin Costner is willing to take "risks" with his money

    The 69-year-old Hollywood star - who has a reported net worth in the region of $400 million - has carved out a career in producing and directing to go along with his on-camera work and explained that he even put his house on the line so he could pursue his passion projects


    He told US TV show 'Extra:' "I would love to have some mythical billionaire.

    "I know what it's like to gamble everything. I've gambled everything. Billionaires don't gamble as much. But I never really had that kind of investor who says, 'I believe in your American storytelling,' and so what am I supposed to do? Wilt like a daisy? Or I just look to myself. I push it in the middle and I don't blink.

    "The monetisation is there.

    "What is crazy about me is I have even risked this place. I have great things in my life, but I don't want those things to tie me up so much that I can't pursue what else is in front of me, so in instances I have risked the things that I have."

    The 'Yellowstone' actor - who has Annie, 40, Lily, 37, and Joe, 36 with his ex-wife Cindy Silva, as well as son Liam, 26, with former partner Bridget Rooney - noted that he will leave enough money for his children but he "won't be held back" by his major fortune.

    He said: I'm going to risk some things, I'll make sure my children are taken care of. I'll make sure I'm fine. But this big pile I've been able to make, it can't be the thing that is holding me back"
