Rick Salomon tops annual list of highest-paid producers

In 2021 it looked like the producer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Thursday (April 18) that Salomon is the highest-paid producer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between March 2023 and March 2024, a nearly $40 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 American producer has an estimated net worth of $215 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 Salomon Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Neptune Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondersalomon - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Rick) and a fashion line called “Rick Salomon Seduction”.

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