Sarah Wiener tops annual list of highest-paid chefs

In 2022 it looked like the chef’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Sunday (December 22) that Wiener is the highest-paid chef in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $50 million lead over her 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 German chef-business woman has an estimated net worth of $245 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Wiener Burger” chain) in Berlin, a Football Team (the “Halle Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderwiener - Germany), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Sarah) and a fashion line called “Sarah Wiener Seduction”.

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