Introduction   

Seth Meyers is an American professional comedian, writer, and actor with an estimated net worth of $26 Million. 

Late Night Contract Renewal

In 2024, shortly after Meyers celebrated 10 years of hosting Late Night with Seth Meyers, NBCUniversal announced that his contract had been renewed until 2028. The agreement also included a deal between Meyers’ own production company, Sethmaker Shoemeyers, and Universal Studio Group for him to develop other projects for NBCUniversal.

Meyers’ contract for hosting the show pays him around $5 million per year. However, this amount is significantly lower than that of other late-night TV hosts, such as Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel, who both earn $15 million per year.

Despite the renewal, the show’s house band, the 8G Band, was let go by the show in August 2024 to cut costs. However, they still provided pre-recorded music, rather than playing live in the studio. Since Meyers took over the slot from Jimmy Fallon in 2014, the show has received 11 Emmy nominations, seven Writers Guild of America Award nominations, and won two Critics’ Choice Awards.

Real Estate

Meyers and his wife purchased an apartment in the West Village neighborhood of New York in December 2013 for $3.5 million. Subsequently, they renovated the property before listing it for sale in 2017 for $4.5 million. The two-bedroom apartment, which featured a sunken living room with a fireplace, a modernized kitchen, and a spa bathroom, was sold in early 2018 for the full asking price.

Before the sale of the apartment was completed, the couple purchased a 5-bedroom duplex in Greenwich Village in 2016 for $7.5 million, as they needed more space following the birth of their first child. The 3,200-square-foot residence features two wood-burning fireplaces, a chef’s kitchen, a spacious living/dining room, four and a half bathrooms, and wooden beamed ceilings. The duplex occupies two floors of a 15-story building, which has only two apartments per floor, providing complete privacy for Meyers and his wife in a prime location in the city.

Philanthropy

Meyers has supported various charitable organizations, including Amnesty International, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, Cycle for Survival, Forgotten Harvest, Memorial Sloan-Kettering, Mia Hamm Foundation, Motion Picture and Television Fund Foundation, Natural Resources Defense Council, and Somaly Mam Foundation.

Introduction

Gabriel Iglesias is an American professional comedian and actor with an estimated net worth of $40 Million. 

Earnings History

In 2013, Forbes listed Iglesias among the world’s highest-paid comedians, earning an estimated $11 million that year. During this time, the majority of his income was earned through live performances. This includes 2015 and 2016, when he made the list again, earning an estimated $8.5 million and $9.5 million, respectively. By 2018, Gabriel Iglesias was earning $20.5 million per year through a combination of live performances — 136 in a twelve-month period, to be exact — plus voiceover work, and of course, his Netflix contract. The following year, he earned a similar figure of $22 million, which shows just how much of an impact Netflix has had on his earnings since releasing his first special.

Netflix Deal

In 2024, Gabriel Iglesias signed a contract with Netflix to release several comedy specials exclusively on the streaming platform. However, this was not the first deal the comedian signed with Netflix, as he’d previously released specials such as I’m Sorry for What I Said When I Was Hungry in 2016 and One Show Fits All in 2019. In 2022, he released Stadium Fluffy: Live From Los Angeles, with the live performance at Dodger Stadium selling out.

Since signing his current agreement, Iglesias has released his fourth Netflix special, Legend of Fluffy, which aired in January 2025. According to industry estimates, under his numerous deals with Netflix, Gabriel earns anywhere between $10 million and $15 million per special.

Volkswagen Bus Collection

Wealthy celebrities often enjoy buying luxury supercars like Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and Bugattis. Others love collecting classic cars, such as American muscle from the 1960s and 1970s. Gabriel Iglesias, on the other hand, owns a collection of vehicles that truly fits his personality, and might not be all that surprising to his fans. 

Iglesias loves to collect just one vehicle in particular, the Volkswagen Bus. In 2019, he took Business Insider on a tour of his museum, named The Fluffy Museum, which showcases his entire collection. By our count, there are roughly fourteen or fifteen VW buses lined up in his collection, each a different variant, either by color, cab, year, or model. This includes a custom-painted Iron Man Bus that used to be green. According to the Fluffy Guy himself, each VW Bus in his collection is valued at between $100,000 and $200,000. He also owns several VW Beetles, and of course, as any American classic car collector would, several Camaros.

In the video, Gabriel states that his current collection is worth approximately $3 million, with the VW Buses likely accounting for the majority of that value. The inspiration for collecting classic cars initially came from TV host Jay Leno, who is no stranger to valuable vehicles.

Real Estate

In September 2006, Gabriel Iglesias paid $1.4 million for a 3,322-square-foot, four-bedroom, four-bathroom home in Signal Hill, California. According to public records, ownership changed hands in 2018, but a purchase price was not listed. Reports suggest that he has since moved to San Antonio, Texas, although this is not entirely confirmed.

Introduction

Jordan Peele is an American professional actor, comedian, and filmmaker with an estimated net worth of $50 Million. 

Before Wealth & Fame

Growing up in New York City, Jordan Peele was raised by his single mother in Manhattan’s Upper West Side. He attended The Calhoun School, a prestigious private school in the city, and was passionate about sketch comedy and horror movies from a young age. Peel later stated that some of his early influences included Eddie Murphy, Tim Burton, and Monty Python.

Although Jordan briefly attended Sarah Lawrence College, where he majored in puppetry and film, he dropped out after just two years to join Amsterdam’s Boom Chicago improv group. He lived there for roughly two years while performing with the group, and after this, he met Keegan-Michael Key while the pair worked together on MADtv in 2004. The duo would form a great friendship and, later, an iconic working relationship.

Key & Peele

Having already established a solid friendship, Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key co-developed and hosted the Comedy Central sketch-comedy show Key & Peele. The show featured numerous comical characters created by the duo, including DeVon, a paranoid landlord; Mr. Garvey, a substitute teacher; and Luther, an anger translator for Barack Obama.

From 2012 to 2015, the show aired on Comedy Central for five seasons and 54 episodes. Although it wasn’t the first project of Key and Peele’s career, it cemented their position in the comedic industry.

TV Career

Before, during, and after Key & Peele, Jordan landed various roles in popular television shows. Many of these roles were single-episode appearances in series such as Reno 911!, The Mindy Project, Workaholics, and Modern Family.

Peele is also well-known for his voiceover work in adult animated television shows, including Bob’s Burgers, American Dad!, Robot Chicken, Rick & Morty, and Big Mouth. In fact, in recent years, Netflix’s Big Mouth has been Peele’s most significant series, playing multiple characters throughout the show’s eight seasons.

Monkeypaw Productions

In 2012, Jordan Peele launched Monkeypaw Productions, his film production company. While the company was founded at the same time as Key & Peele aired, it would later serve as the production company for all of Peele’s horror films.

In 2017, desperate to revisit his childhood passion for horror movies, Peele produced his first horror flick, Get Out, through Monkeypaw Productions on a $4.5 million budget. The film featured a never-before-seen plotline and was a massive success in the genre, grossing over $255 million globally.

This led to Monkeypaw Productions inking a five-year exclusive deal with Universal Pictures, resulting in a string of unique horror films produced in the late 2010s and early 2020s. These films, including Us (2019), BlacKkKlansman (2018), Candyman (2021), and Nope (2022), have featured stars such as Daniel Kaluuya, Bradley Whitford, Keke Palmer, and Winston Duke. While the company is best known for its films Get Out, Us, and Nope, it has also produced several hit TV shows, including Lorena, Weird City, The Twilight Zone, and The Last O.G.

Highest-Grossing Films

The films produced by Jordan Peele through Monkeypaw Productions have performed well at the box office, grossing over $800 million. Get Out and Us produced the highest returns on investment, with budgets of $5 million and $4.5 million, respectively. Nope had the highest production budget of any film the company has produced, costing a total of $68 million. However, it struggled to reach the heights of the earlier films, grossing just $172 million.

Here’s a list of the highest-grossing films that Moneypaw Productions has produced:

1. Us – $256 million
2. Get Out – $255 million
3. Nope – $171 million
4. BlackKkKlansman – $93.4 million
5. Candyman – $77.4 million
6. Monkey Man – $35.3 million
7. Keanu – $20.7 million
