Larry David made a whole lot of real money off of a “show about nothing”. As the co-creator and executive producer of Seinfeld as well as HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm Larry has amassed an impressive fortune north of $800 million.

It goes without saying that was Larry paid handsomely for his writing, creating and producing duties during Seinfeld’s 9 year run. Maybe not as much as Jerry’s $1 million per episode but still a hefty sum. The real windfall came when Seinfeld was sold in to syndication to Columbia Tristar. The day Seinfeld was sold into syndication Larry earned an estimated $650 million. Add to that his prior personal fortune of $30 million plus all the money he has earned since starring in Curb and Larry is a very happy man. Another great annuity for David has been the periodic releases of Seinfeld DVD box sets. Every few years a new season is unleashed to a frenzied public with a huge marketing blitz. DVD sales can easily add another $40-50 million to Larry’s bottom line. His enthusiasm may be curbed, but his earning potential is far from it.
