Rookie Earnings

Despite being drafted by the New Jersey Devils in the 1990 NHL draft, Martin Brodeur wouldn’t play a full season for the team until 1993. His first couple of seasons with the Devils included a stint in the AHL on a very low base salary. When Brodeur signed with the Devils, he received an $80,000 signing bonus, which was his entire earnings for that year. In the 1991-92 season, he played most of his games in the minor leagues, earning just under $42,000. The following year, he played the entire season in the AHL, earning $35,000.

In 1993, Brodeur was called up to the big leagues and played the entire season for the Devils, earning a $140,000 base salary plus a $50,000 bonus. However, his years of earning smaller salaries were quickly about to come to a close. In 1994, his annual salary rose to $930,000, although he initially received only $80,000 due to the NHL lockout that year. The case eventually went to arbitration, and he was awarded $850,000 in backpay.

High Value Contracts

In 1995, Martin Brodeur signed his first notable contract. This was a 3-year, $5.3 million deal with the New Jersey Devils, which paid him between $1.5 million and $2 million per year.

Interestingly, Brodeur negotiated the next contract of his career himself. His agent at the time was demanding a pay raise for Brodeur to $5 million per year, but it appeared a deal wasn’t going to be made. As a result, Martin participated in the negotiations himself, securing $17.1 million over four years. By the end of the contract, he was earning just over $4.7 million per year.

He signed the most valuable contract of his career in 2002, securing a $40 million, five-year extension with the Devils. According to reports, this agreement lasted only four years, during which he earned nothing in one year due to another NHL lockout in the 2004/05 season. Still, the first two years paid him a combined $13.8 million, and the fourth and final year paid him $5.24 million, for a total of just $19 million.

Brodeur’s final long-term contract in the league was valued at $31.2 million over six years, with an average annual salary of $5.2 million. This contract was completed in full, earning him the entire value of the deal.

Final NHL Contracts

Martin played two more seasons with the New Jersey Devils, the first of which coincided with the 2012/13 NHL lockout. As a result, he received a prorated salary of $2.34 million rather than the projected $4 million. In his final year with the team, he reportedly earned $5 million.

Brodeur finished his career on a one-year deal with the St. Louis Blues. Despite the contract being worth $700,000, he abruptly retired after just seven games with the team. He received an appropriate prorated $293,333 in compensation.

Endorsements

Funnily enough, one of Martin Brodeur’s most lucrative endorsement deals, as far as we’re aware, actually occurred almost a decade after he retired from the sport. In 2024, Brodeur signed a contract with Dirty Devil Vodka to serve as its latest brand ambassador. The exact terms of the agreement are unknown, including how much he is earning through the partnership. While he was still playing in the NHL, Broder starred in several commercials for various companies, including DirecTV, OneChange, Delissio, and Enterprise.

Divorce Settlement

In August 1995, Brodeur married his first wife, Mélanie Dubois, and they were together for eight years. In May 2003, Mélanie filed for divorce when Brodeur was at the height of his career with the New Jersey Devils. Reports stated that Brodeur admitted to having an affair with Dubois’s sister, which prompted the couple to separate.

As part of the divorce settlement, Brodeur was reportedly required to pay Dubois permanent alimony of $500,000 per year. Despite the term “permanent,” this type of alimony is usually paid until certain events occur, such as remarriage, a change in financial circumstances, or the death of a spouse. The alimony payment was in addition to child support of around $132,000 annually and covered 87% of the cost of the children’s private schools and camp visits.

Each party received an equal share of the marital assets, with Dubois receiving $3.4 million and Brodeur receiving $3.4 million, and Dubois also received one‑half of Brodeur’s retirement assets. She was also entitled to half of the $1.75 million in deferred compensation due to Brodeur. This compensation was bonus money earned during his New Jersey Devils contract and was scheduled for payment between 2006 and 2009.

Alimony Appeal

After two years of negotiations, the divorce was finalized on October 20, 2005, and Brodeur quickly appealed the permanent alimony, which he believed was unfair. Following a review of the case, the judge ruled in Brodeur’s favor and ordered the removal of the permanent portion of the agreement. However, Brodeur still had to pay $500,000 annually until 2020, when their oldest child would graduate from high school.

In response, Brodeur argued that alimony should terminate upon his retirement from the NHL in 2012, while Dubois sought payments until 2024, when their youngest child would finish college. Eventually, the court compromised on the timeline and set the end date as 2020. Despite the size of the alimony and child support payments, Brodeur’s continued success ensured that they did not have a lasting impact on his net worth.

Real Estate

Martin Brodeur isn’t one to flaunt his wealth, but nonetheless, fans got a glimpse of his lifestyle when he put his New Jersey townhome up for sale in 2015.

After being appointed special assistant to the Jersey Devils’ general manager, Brodeur put his West Orange, New Jersey, home up for sale with an asking price of $949,000. This 3,300-square-foot home has plenty of space, high ceilings, and a two-story foyer with huge light-giving windows. The house has hardwood floors throughout, a walkout recreation room, and a large master bathroom with a glass-walled shower and soaking tub. Speaking of the master bedroom, it boasts its own fireplace, separate sitting room, and walk-in closet.

While still working on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Smith was paid minor sums for his first few films. This included $50,000 for Where the Day Takes You (1992), $500,000 for Six Degrees of Separation (1993), and $100,000 for Made in America (1993).

Bad Boys Salary

It wasn’t until 1995 that he earned his first seven-figure salary for a film. Smith earned $2 million starring in Bad Boys (1995). The sequel, Bad Boys II (2003), earned him $20 million. The most recent films, Bad Boys for Life and Bad Boys: Ride or Die, earned him $17 million and $25 million, respectively.

There have been reports that Will would receive a 20% cut of the profits from Bad Boys II, which would have been worth an additional $20-$30 million; however, nothing has been confirmed. He’s estimated to have earned $64 million from the franchise.

Men in Black Trilogy Salary

Two years after starring in the first Bad Boys film, Will was paid $5 million for Men in Black (1997). He earned $20 million for Men in Black II (2002) and a $20 million upfront salary for Men in Black 3 (2012), but also received 10% of the gross backend, which amounted to roughly $80 million. He’s estimated to have earned $125 million from the franchise.

King Richard Salary

Smith was paid an upfront salary of $20 million for King Richard (2021) and was expected to earn tens of millions in back-end compensation from box-office profits. However, Warner Bros. released the film on HBO Max instead due to the pandemic; a tactic they used with many of their films at the time. They paid Will a flat $40 million bonus to compensate for the loss of backend, bringing his total for the film to $60 million.

Other Notable Film Salaries

During the 1990s, between filming Bad Boys and Men in Black, Smith earned seven- and eight-figure salaries from other projects. In 1998, he earned $14 million for Enemy of the State and $7 million for Wild Wild West in 1999.

Once the 21st century began, Smith earned $10 million for The Legend of Bagger Vance. A year later, he earned his first $20 million salary from starring in Ali. Since then, Will has commanded at least $20 million per project, including I, Robot ($28 million), Hitch ($20 million), The Pursuit of Happyness ($20 million), I Am Legend ($25 million), and Hancock ($20 million).

Highest-Grossing Movies

Smith’s highest-grossing films include the franchises for which he’s most recognized, Men in Black and Bad Boys. However, his top-grossing movie was 2019’s Aladdin, which grossed $1.05 billion worldwide. This is Will Smith’s only movie to gross over $1 billion.

As for Men in Black, all three of the films in the trilogy made it to the top ten. Men in Black 3 is Smith’s fourth-highest-grossing film, with $654 million in worldwide box office revenue. The original ranks sixth, grossing $589 million, while Men in Black II ranks eighth at $445 million. The two most recent Bad Boys movies just made the list, coming in ninth and tenth place. The Men in Black franchise grossed nearly $1.7 billion, and Bad Boys grossed $1.14 billion.

Here’s a complete list of Will Smith’s ten highest-grossing films at the box office:

Aladdin – $1.05 Billion (2019)
Independence Day – $817 Million (1996)
Suicide Squad – $749 Million (2016)
Men in Black 3 – $654 Million (2012)
Hancock – $629 Million (2008)
Men in Black – $589 Million (1997)

Men in Black II – $445 Million (2002)
Bad Boys for Life – $427 Million (2020)
Bad Boys: Ride or Die – $390 Million (2024)

Real Estate

Over the years, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith have owned real estate worth $100 million worldwide. In 2003, they reportedly purchased a plot of land in Calabasas, California. Some outlets report it as 150 acres, though realtor websites list it as 14.6 acres. The couple spent roughly seven years building a custom 22,000-square-foot, six-bedroom, thirteen-bathroom mansion on the property. The home also features an outdoor pool, a full-size basketball court, and a tennis court. They briefly listed it for sale at $42 million in 2014, but never sold it.

Prior to this, the couple lived in an 8,703-square-foot home in Thousand Oaks. Smith purchased the property for $1.8 million in February 1995 and sold it for $2.3 million in September 2003.

More recently, in October 2020, they purchased a 12,402-square-foot, five-bedroom, eight-bathroom mansion in the Hidden Hills. This property features numerous amenities, including an outdoor pool, a tennis court, a theatre room, a wine cellar, walk-in closets, and a billiards room. The couple paid $7.95 million for the home, and according to Zillow, it’s currently valued at roughly $10.7 million.

Philanthropy

Will Smith and Jada have their own foundation, “The Will and Jada Smith Family Foundation”, which has given over $1 million to charities and other organizations. Their biggest beneficiaries have been Christian churches, the Scientology organization, and Mosques.

2018	$35,500,000
2019	$31,000,000

Between 2014 and 2019, J. Cole earned an estimated $117 million and consistently ranked among the highest-paid rappers globally. In 2014, he reportedly earned $7 million from all endeavors, but by 2016, his annual income had doubled to $14 million.

The highest-earning years of Cole’s career came in 2018 and 2019, when he earned an estimated $35.5 million and $31 million, respectively. This was primarily due to the 2018 release of his album KOD, which sold 397,000 copies in its first week. Following the release, J. Cole embarked on the KOD Tour, which significantly contributed to his $95 million in gross tour revenue.

Between 2014 and 2019, J. Cole earned an estimated $117.5 million from all endeavors.

Tour History

A substantial portion of J. Cole’s net worth has been amassed from touring. His first three solo headlining tours occurred between 2015 and 2018, beginning with the 2014 Forest Hills Drive Tour. The third leg of the tour commenced on July 12, 2015, and lasted only a few months, ending on September 4. According to Billboard, this North American leg grossed approximately $16.4 million.

4 Your Eyez Only World Tour

Two years later, in June 2017, J. Cole embarked on his second major tour, which was the 4 Your Eyez Only World Tour. Spanning six months, three legs, and 62 shows across North America, Europe, and Oceania, the tour reportedly grossed $35.6 million in revenue.

KOD Tour

The following year, J. Cole embarked on the KOD Tour, which was produced by Live Nation and featured Young Thug as a supporting artist. The tour commenced in August 2018 and concluded in October. Now, the revenue figures aren’t as well documented; however, Pollstar previously reported that two performances in Los Angeles grossed a combined $2.2 million, and shows at Madison Square Garden grossed $1.4 million.

All things considered, it’s believed that the KOD Tour grossed somewhere between $25 million and $35 million in total.

Collaborative Tours

In J. Cole’s most recent tours, he has collaborated with other artists. The first of which was The Off-Season Tour in 2021, co-headlining with 21 Savage and reportedly grossing between $20 million and $30 million.

In July 2023, J. Cole, 21 Savage, and Drake launched the It’s All a Blur Tour, which became the most successful tour of Cole’s career. Comprising 80 shows across North America, several other artists joined as supporting acts, including Central Cee, Lil Yachty, and Lil Durk. The tour reportedly grossed $320.5 million in revenue, which, even when divided by three, would still exceed the revenue of all of J. Cole’s previous tours combined.

Real Estate

In June 2014, J. Cole paid $121,000 for his childhood home at 2014 Forest Hills Drive in Fayetteville, North Carolina. The home clearly means a lot to him, since he used the property’s address as the title for his 2014 studio album. Hence why we mentioned the full address above. The 1,000-square-foot, four-bedroom, two-bathroom home is currently valued at $205,000, and he is still the registered owner. According to reports, the rapper had plans to turn this property into rent-free accommodation for single mothers.

Denver Broncos Contract & Salary

The Denver Broncos selected Bradley Chubb as the fifth overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. Shortly thereafter, Chubb signed a four-year, $27.3 million rookie contract with the team, which was fully guaranteed. According to reports, the lion’s share of the value ($17.9 million) was actually paid out as a signing bonus. As a result, Chubb earned $18.4 million for his very first season in the league. That’s an impressive sum of money for someone to earn in their rookie year.

Naturally, Chubb’s income for the other three years was much, much lower. He reportedly earned $1.73 million in 2019, $3.1 million in 2020, and $4.37 million for the fourth and final year of the deal.

Miami Dolphins Contracts & Salary

In 2022, Chubb signed a 5-year contract with the Miami Dolphins, worth $110 million. He took home a total of just under $14.1 million for the year, including his $13.5 million signing bonus. The following year, he earned approximately $19.5 million, and in 2024, he took home a career-high $20.45 million. Chubb’s contract with the team was renegotiated to a new three-year, $54.5 million deal in 2025. However, after just a single season, he was released by the Dolphins.

As a result, despite signing $164.5 million worth of contracts in Miami, he earned just $65 million.

Buffalo Bills Contract

Following his release from the Dolphins, Bradley Chubb signed a three-year, $43.5 million contract with the Buffalo Bills, of which $26.97 million was guaranteed. The contract also included a $12 million signing bonus, which reports suggest will be paid out over a four-year period. Chubb is set to earn $1.985 million in base salary for the 2026 season.

Endorsement Deals

As far as we’re aware, Bradley Chubb was never much of an endorsement draw and didn’t rely on additional income off the field. It appears he has previously appeared in ad campaigns for Panini and Publix, though little else is known.

Real Estate

According to reports, in February 2023, Bradley Chubb paid $3.5 million for a newly-built, four-bedroom home in Florida, comprising almost 5,000 square feet of living space. The home sits on 2.5 acres of land and features an outdoor pool and a three-car garage.
