His films have grossed more than $2.7 billion at the box office, largely due to his relationship with Adam Sandler.

In this profile, we’ll discuss our research into Rob Schneider’s net worth, comedy career, film salaries, highest-grossing films, and other aspects of his finances.

Quick Facts

Film Earnings

As far as we’re aware, the only publicly known salary of Rob Schneider’s career was a $1 million paycheck from The Animal. However, this film wasn’t anywhere near the most successful of his career. Schneider has starred in numerous hit comedies over the years, including Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo (1999), Hot Chick (2002), Big Stan (2007), and Grown Ups (2010). Each of the above, and many more of his known hits, likely earned him seven-figure paydays.

Highest-Grossing Movies

Nine of Schneider’s ten highest-grossing films are from minor roles and cameos in Sandler-led movies. His highest-grossing film, the only film that doesn’t star Adam Sandler, was Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992), which grossed $359 million. Of the nine Sandler movies on the list, Schneider had a considerable role in three. Those are Grown Ups, grossing $271 million, You Don’t Mess with the Zohan ($204 million), and The Longest Yard ($191 million).

Some notable lead roles worth mentioning that didn’t make the top ten include Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo ($93 million), The Animal ($85 million), and The Benchwarmers ($65 million).

Here’s a complete list of Rob Schneider’s ten highest-grossing movies:

1. Home Alone 2: Lost in New York – $359 million (1992)
2. Grown Ups – $271 million (2010)
3. Click – $241 million (2006)

Introduction

David Spade is an American professional comedian, Actor, TV personality, and writer with an estimated net worth of $70 Million.

Quick Facts

• Earned a peak of $300,000 per episode from Just Shoot Me!
• Received $150,000 per episode for starring in Rules of Engagement

Just Shoot Me! Salary

In 1997, David Spade was cast as Dennis Finch in the sitcom Just Shoot Me!, marking his first recurring role on television. Spade starred in all seven seasons and 149 episodes of the show. According to reports, he was earning $150,000 per episode in the earlier seasons. By season five, his salary had been increased to $300,000 per episode. 

Based on the information above, Spade potentially earned $6.6 million apiece for seasons five and six, followed by $7.2 million for the seventh and final season. Now, assuming that the $150,000-per-episode figure relates to seasons one through four (which is somewhat unlikely), Spade would have earned roughly $12.15 million. This brings his total earnings from Just Shoot Me! to an estimated $32.5 million.

Rules of Engagement Salary

In the late 2000s, Spade secured his iconic role as Russell Dunbar in the sitcom Rules of Engagement. Starring alongside the likes of Patrick Warburton, Megyn Price, Oliver Hudson, and Bianca Kajlich, reports suggest that he earned $150,000 per episode at the peak of the show’s success.

That doesn’t give us a whole lot to go on, especially since there were seven seasons, each varying in length. Season five comprised 24 episodes, which could have earned him $3.6 million, while the final season seven comprised just 13 episodes.

Highest-Grossing Movies

Spade is another of Adam Sandler’s friends who starred in all three Hotel Transylvania films and two Grown Ups films. The Transylvania trilogy comprises his three highest-grossing films, which have totaled $1.36 billion at the box office. Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation grossed the most at the box office, earning $529 million, followed by the second installment at $475 million and the original movie at $358 million.

Fourth on the list was the original Grown Ups film, which grossed $271 million, quickly followed by the sequel, which grossed $247 million.

Since Spade’s most recent films, including The Do-Over (2016), Father of the Year (2018), and The Wrong Missy (2020), have been Netflix exclusives, none have been released in theaters.

Here’s a complete list of David Spade’s ten highest-grossing movies:

1. Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation – $529 Million (2018)
2. Hotel Transylvania 2 – $475 Million (2015)
3. Hotel Transylvania – $358 Million (2012)
4. Grown Ups – $271 Million (2010)
5. Grown Ups 2 – $247 Million (2013)
6. I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry – $187 Million (2007)
7. The Emperor’s New Groove – $170 Million (2000)
8. Jack and Jill – $150 Million (2011)
9. The Rugrats Movie – $141 Million (1998)
10. Racing Stripes – $91 Million (2005)

Real Estate

Beverly Hills Home

In December 2001, David Spade paid $4 million for a 7,000-square-foot, five-bedroom, seven-bathroom home in Beverly Hills, California. The property features amenities such as a spa, outdoor pool, and fire pits, and appears to have shot up in value since Spade acquired it, thanks to his extensive renovations. It was also in the news in 2017, when burglars broke in and stole a safe containing $80,000 in cash and jewelry.

In January 2022, after more than two decades of ownership, Sapde returned the property to the market, seeking just under $20 million. He closed a $19.5 million deal the following month. Even after accounting for property taxes (which had reached roughly $65,000 per year by the time of the sale) and agent commissions, Spade still likely profited eight figures.

Los Angeles Home

The biggest purchase Spade has ever made when it comes to real estate, both in terms of size and cost, was his 11,300-square-foot mansion in Los Angeles. The comedian paid $13.85 million for the six-bedroom, eleven-bathroom property in October 2021, and still owns it at the time of writing. Additionally, the home features amenities such as an infinity pool, a movie theatre, a sauna, a gym, a 1,200-bottle wine cellar, and walk-in closets.

Newport Beach Home

In December 2023, Spade paid $9.5 million for a newly-built, 3,813-square-foot, four-bedroom, five-bathroom property in Newport Beach, California. David still owns this home, which sits on a 7,500-square-foot lot and features ocean views from the second floor. According to Zillow, it currently has an estimated value of $10.3 million.

Introduction

Larry the Cable Guy is an American professional stand-up comedian with an estimated net worth of $100 Million.

After earning a fortune by making people laugh, Larry’s unique redneck brand of comedy has made him a household name. While he isn’t as active in the comedy scene as he used to be, he has amassed a considerable fortune that continues to grow.

In this profile, we’ll outline our research into Larry the Cable Guy’s net worth, earnings history, and real estate investments.

Quick Facts

• Earned an estimated $39 million between 2005 and 2006
• Sold his 4,100-square-foot Arizona home for $3.7 million in 2020

Earnings History

Based on our research, Larry the Cable Guy was listed on the Forbes Celebrity 100 a total of 4 times throughout the 2000s and 2010s. He first made the list in 2006, earning an estimated $19 million in the 2005 calendar year. The following year, his annual income increased slightly to $20 million. 

Larry then disappeared from the list for several years before returning in 2012, earning an estimated $18 million that calendar year (between June 1, 2011, and June 1, 2012). The following year, his income declined to $13 million, after which he dropped off the list. This brings his total estimated income to $70 million for the four years mentioned above.

At the time, Larry had multiple sources of income, the most notable of which was his involvement with the Blue Collar Comedy Tour. However, he also earned additional income from merchandising, DVD sales, brand endorsements, a History Channel television show, and numerous voice-over roles.

Real Estate

In January 2003, Larry paid $425,000 for a 6,610-square-foot, four-bedroom, four-bathroom home in Sanford, Florida. The property sits on 20 acres and features extensive wood and brick throughout. It also features an outdoor pool, a home gym, and a mancave with a bar area and a billiard table. It appears he listed this property for sale in September 2010, seeking $1.55 million; however, he reduced the price to $1.2 million in June 2012, and let it go for just $800,000 almost a year later.

In May 2016, Larry paid $3.6 million for a 4,100-square-foot, four-bedroom, five-bathroom home in Scottsdale, Arizona. It appears that he’s a fan of remote locations, as the only thing you can see from his infinity pool is the Desert Mountain golf course. Still, he returned the property to the market in January 2020, looking for $4 million. He settled on $3.7 million in April, incurring a loss after taxes and agent commissions.

Larry also owns a home in Nebraska, and while we don’t know how much he paid for it, it features a wraparound porch, an indoor theater, a game room, and loads of outdoor space.
