David Schwimmer | Est. $100 million

The TV viewers of the ’90s surely know who David Schwimmer is. The now-54-year-old star gained prominence when he joined the hit sitcom Friends back in 1994. He played the role of Ross Geller, one of the much-loved groups of six friends. At the time, he was earning $22,500 per episode that dramatically rose to $1 million. Add to that the $10-20 million in royalties a year, no wonder David has a fortune of $100 million.

However, though David was famously known for this show, he has established himself as a versatile actor. He has credit roles in a variety of films, stage plays, and voice acting projects. David did Madagascar, Intelligence, Band of Brothers, and more. In 2010, he starred as Captain Sobel in in the World War II miniseries Band of Brothers, which was another notable time during his career. Most recently, David is set to reprise his role as Ross in the upcoming Friends special reunion.
