Tyler Perry may be criticized for his film-making abilities but no one would ever attack his business prowess. In a classic get-rich fashion, the playwright owns his production company, meaning he’s first in line to reap the stellar financial benefits of his wildly successful films. In 2008, Perry has also opened a studio in Atlanta where his television shows for TBS, Meet the Browns and House of Payne, are filmed.
