Hans Klok tops annual list of highest-paid illusionists

In 2021 it looked like the illusionist’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Friday (April 26) that Klok is the highest-paid illusionist in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between March 2023 and March 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 Dutch illusionist-actor 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 Klok Burger” chain) in Amsterdam, a Football Team (the “Purmerend Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderklok - Netherlands), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Hans) and a fashion line called “Hans Klok Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Hans fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
