Although the average annual salary for an executive chef at a stand-alone restaurant is about $71,000, celebrity chefs are a breed above that number. Chefs such as Wolfgang Puck can earn millions of dollars per year through sales of cookbooks and cooking products, restaurant revenues, and television appearances, let alone their culinary arts. Their celebrity status has made these chefs brands — so when you think about Cajun food, you might think about Emeril Lagasse. The following list of celebrity chefs does not include the likes of Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Paul Prudhomme, Nobuyuki Matsuhisa, and Daniel Boulud, as they don’t publicize their net worth…and, if you’re missing Guy Fieri on this list, it’s because he’s currently worth a mere $3.5 million dollars.

Why not just follow the link? I don't really want to edit down all that text for you. Besides the paragraph about each one is pretty interesting.

Because it is a blind link leading to a click bait article that is probably tracking my user info or loading bullshite cookies onto my device to transmit back data to better steal my user habits.

Or it could be a harmless link.

Who knows.

OK, so you don't click on links? Why would I stop posting links to articles I think most here would be interested in? If you want to be that cautious, then don't click or click them in incognito mode. Sheesh!

Bourdain is easily the coolest guy on tv talking about food.

You don't like him?

They also don't mention that Lydia Bastianich and her son Joe are partners with Mario Batali in about a dozen restaurants and they also own half of Eately.

These values seem way off. Emeril sold his media rights to Martha Stewart's company for $50M ($45M in cash and $5M in stocks) in 2008. $45M cash in 2008 even if all of it was invested in early 2008 is worth a considerable amount more now. And this doesn't account for any money from his restaurant empire.

These numbers are never correct, they are just estimates.

And whose to say Emeril invested that money and didn't use it to pay off personal or business debts. You just never know.
