^Maybe he's trying to be like Klaus Kinski in terms of volume....^

I was thinking Nic Cage, but without the crazy appeal.

QuoteBruce Willis net worth and salary: Bruce Willis is an American actor, producer and "musician" who has a net worth of $250 million.

I don't know how they come up with these numbers, unless Bruce Willis released these numbers by himself? With that kind of money he really doesn't need to do crappy movies.
Is it October yet?

They're generally wild guesses, though sometimes salaries for a bunch of films are known and they just add them together.  You can probably see how that doesn't make sense as a "net worth" either - people waste their money and give it away, and they also invest it and increase it.  So yeah, it's mostly just wild guesses.

Related, try looking them up for YouTubers, they're hilarious.

Mike Stoklasa, one of the founders and editors of RLM (they did the Plinkett Star Wars reviews, etc), has his listed as $18 million on one site.  Another lists it as $1.5 million.  Where does either come from?  They don't list sources of any kind.  I theorize they use stuff like Social Blade and Patreon gross intakes to make up something, but the thing is, they apparently never take COSTS into account.  A place like RLM rents a studio and has three full timers there, plus equipment, and the general public knows none of the costs of any of it.  So again, it comes down to wild guesses without much basis.

The most recent Willis flick I've seen was Cosmic Sin, a few months ago and it was a turkey.

I'm starting to wonder if he and Nicolas Cage have the same agent, cuz they seem to be on the same career path.

So I googled 'Bruce Willis net worth sources'. This is what I got:

QuoteBruce Willis Salary Per Movie: The Sixth Sense is by far Bruce's biggest career payday. For the film he took an upfront salary of $14 million plus a large percentage of the gross receipts. In total he ended up earning around $100 million from the movie.

I watched Cosmic Sin on Netflix a couple of weeks ago, not exactly the best movie I've ever seen. Let's just say that.
