Matt LeBlanc
Show & Seasons: Friends – 10
Last Episode Airdate: May 06, 2004
Passive Earning: Average of $20 million per year
Joey on Friends was played by Matt LeBlanc, which in turn earned him three Emmy Award nominations. In addition to this amazing achievement, LeBlanc is earning an average of $20 million per year in residual income from the series. LeBlanc also featured in a Friends spin-off known as Joey, which he did with a few characters from the original Friend’s cast. However, it was short-lived as it only went through two seasons and was canceled in 2006.
For the spin-off, there were 46 episodes, but due to low ratings, NBC decided it would not be a good investment to spend airtime on the series. But, as we write this, LeBlanc is working on a new project titled Man with a Plan.

Friends are by far one of the most popular TV shows watched globally and can be credited for sending over some amazing talents to Hollywood. Jennifer Aniston is one such member of the cast who has had a tremendous career and possibly the most successful too. Aniston’s roles in other major films have helped her to accumulate her total net worth of over $240 million.
Should anything happen to Aniston and her acting career comes to a halt, she will still have a great chance at survival with her massive residual check of up to $20 million per year from the popular sitcom. Interestingly Warner Bros is said to be ranked in up to $1 billion annually from the TV show.
