Passive Earning: Average of $20 million per year
Ross was a popular character on the TV show Friends, which was played by David Schwimmer, and because of this, he is now raking in an average check of $20 million in residual earnings per year. With roles in films like Madagascar and The Laundromat, and this popular series, Friends, we can safely say he has had a successful career. He co-stars with Meryl Streep in The Laundromat, which is currently streaming on Netflix.
Schwimmer first appeared on Friends in September 1994 and stood through until the final episode was aired in 2004 and was also one of the only six original members still on the cast. He could be known for his role as a paleontologist who was somewhat in love or probably for his famous line, “We were on a break!”

Ed O’Neil

Last Episode Airdate: June 09, 1997
Passive Earning: Average of $10 million per year
Ed O’Neil is a famous figure of today as he is a cast member on Modern Family, where he plays the role of Jay. However, this is not his first major hit as he was also a popular cast member on the sitcom Married With Children, where he played the role of Al Bundy, a sitcom that ran for roughly ten years. With co-star Katey Sagal, O’Neil became a household name for millions of families around the world.
For O’Neil, we can say luck and blessing have been on his side as what many actors struggle to do – keep afloat with residual income – he has been getting in bulk. With a yearly check of an average of $10 million from Married With Children, we can imagine how richer he is about to become as his most recent show, Modern Family, will surpass this figure.
