Estimated net worth: $800 million

Although Seinfeld, the legendary TV series he co-created with Larry David and starred in has been off the air for more than a decade, this famous comedian is still making a good buck giving shows and with his web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. His stand up shows alone made him $27 million last year.

It should be noted that Jerry denied the $800 million net worth attributed to him by Forbes when asked about it by Howard Stern, saying it was grossly inflated, so take his estimated net worth with a grain of salt.
