Matt Lauer – $60 Million
Controversial former news anchor Matt Lauer will always be remembered for hosting The Today Show. During his time on screen, the NBC correspondent who was asked to step down also hosted the Olympic Games. His fame as a host and acclaimed producer led to Lauer growing his wealth to around $80M.
Lauer was the highest-paid television personality at the height of his career, with a net worth estimated between $120M to $150M. Just The Today Show alone paid the New York City-native an annual salary of $28M. We don’t hear from Lauer much, but Pop Culture reports that he’s been dating a mystery love interest since 2019.
