Jerry Seinfeld From “Seinfeld,” $110 Million Per Year
Jerry Seinfeld’s residuals for his popular 1990s series may seem steep, but at the time that the series was on the air, Seinfeld was making an incredible $5 million per episode. He was also a writer and creator of the series, which means that he put in more hours than the rest of the cast, but that was well reflected on his paychecks. Most people would happily never work again with that kind of income still coming in, but Jerry continues to perform and work on television.
