Richard Burgi tops annual list of highest-paid actors
In 2022 it looked like the actor’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Tuesday (December 17) that Burgi is the highest-paid actor in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $30 million lead over his closest competition.

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The American actor has an estimated net worth of $185 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 Burgi Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Montclair Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderburgi - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Richard) and a fashion line called “Richard Burgi Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Richard fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
