Will Ferrell is another comedian who has made quite the name for himself. It all started back in high school when he first became interested in acting. Fast forward to 1995, when Will became a featured player on Saturday Night Live for seven years. He is one of few who was nominated for an Emmy as an SNL performance.
After he left SNL he starred in quite a few movies that became a hit such as Old School, Elf, Talladega Nights, a few Austin Powers movies, and more. Will scored two Golden Globe nominations for his role in the movies, The Producers and Stranger than Fiction. His net worth is $100 million, and we imagine that will only increase as the years go on.

Conan O’Brien is another comedian who became a host of The Late Night Show, but started out as a writer for Saturday Night Live. For a short period of time, he was the host of The Late Night Show, taking the place of David Letterman, but this came to a halt when a public scandal surfaced. Afterward, David Letterman was reinstated.
He eventually moved on to The Tonight Show, and then out of the NBC scene entirely. This is where he earned $32 million of his $150 million net worth.

Sarah Silverman is one of the most divisive figures in comedy. With her jokes revolving around confrontational topics such as politics, and religion, the Jewish comedian has managed to agitate people in both left and right political circles. Silverman has also acted in various films, such as School of Rock, Wreck-It Ralph, and A Million Ways to Die in the West. The vegetarian comedian had to struggle her entire life with depression and decided she never wants to have kids, citing that ‘there are just too many kids with no parents’ as the reason why.
Silverman has dated the famous comedian and SNL writer, Dave Attell, and even had a thing with Jimmy Kimmel in 2002. She also dated actor Michael Sheen in the past but never got hitched. If she does decide to get married at some point, the lucky man by her side would probably love to know she is sitting on a $12 million net worth.

The two of them and the show have been the topic of conversation throughout the time the show has been airing. They have also jumped into the world of film, theater, and video games.
