Guy Fieri is a celebrity chef, restaurateur, author, and TV presenter who’s been livin’ the high life in Flavortown since 1968. Guy Fieri’s net worth is sitting pretty at $50 million, so this OG foodie is no stranger to making bank. He’s got investments in real estate, cars, luxury yachts, and even his own tequila and cigar brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guy’s big break came when he won the second season of The Next Food Network Star and was awarded his own cooking show Guy\u2019s Big Bite<\/em>. But his Food Network salary back then paled in comparison to what he earns as one of the biggest celebrity chefs. He’s since opened over 85 restaurants worldwide, over 175 Flavortown Kitchen locations, his own tequila company Santo, and cigar company Knuckle Sandwich Cigars by Espinosa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Food Network is paying Guy Fieri $80 million over 3 years.

At $26.6M annually, Fieri would be the 15th highest-paid player in the NFL.
