In 2021 it looked like the journalist’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Thursday (March 28) that Enthoven is the highest-paid journalist in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between March 2023 and February 2024, a nearly $20 million lead over his closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The French journalist has an estimated net worth of $145 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Enthoven Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Mascara Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderenthoven - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Jean-Paul) and a fashion line called “Jean-Paul Enthoven Seduction”.
