MICHEL SCHOEFFLING – WOODWORKER

Many fans don’t know that before Michael ventured in Hollywood, he was a successful amateur wrestler with lots of gold chips on his shoulder. There are even rumors that he was part of the US Junior Wrestling Team back in the late 80s. After his wrestling career, he then switched his path and decided to pursue a career in acting. To his credit, he landed the role of Jake Ryan in Sixteen Candles in 1984 which opened the gates to other projects.

The degree of his international prominence was enhanced when he earned the spot as #22 “Biggest Hunks of the 1980s”. After a few years, he thought of a more stable source of income than acting and expressed his interest in woodworking and carpentry. Although in his acting career, he amassed a net worth of $500,000. He probably used the money to make new investments in handicraft furniture, which we hoped was successful and profitable.
