Jim Carrey Net Worth
In the beginning of his career, Jim Carrey was paid only $25,000 per episode of TV show In Living Color. 1994 was a breakthrough year for him. He appeared on Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (for $350,000 salary) and The Mask (for $540,000 salary). His income and wealth only grew ever since. In 2015, Carrey’s total net worth is estimated to be slightly above $150 million.
His income isn’t coming solely from acting, as Carrey is also a producer and screenwriter. One of his best paid movies was Bruce Almighty for which he received amazing $25 million. His paycheck for Yes Man was calculated differently. Carrey was promised approximately 36% from the movie’s profit. That definitely helped increase his already sizable net worth.
When Carrey bought his luxurious mansion in Malibu, California, he didn’t have an idea how hard it will be to get rid of it later. He listed the house for sale in 2011 for $18 million. It took several price drops and almost two years, before the prestigious home was finally sold in 2013 for $13.4 million.
Carrey was married twice. His first wife was Melissa Womer, followed by Lauren Holly. After his second divorce, Jim only enjoyed romances without any big commitments. He dated for example beauties like Laurie Holden, Januar Jones, or Jenny McCarthy. In general, it looks like he has a thing for blondes.
