During his career as an American actor, comedian, screenwriter, TV producer, voice actor and radio personality Larry’s net worth has become as amazingly high as $50 million. However, the nickname of Larry is definitely not associated with this profession. Larry is known as a member of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour and also as a person who gained huge success in the world of show business and the entertainment industry – L. Whitney has released seven CD albums in a genre of comedy and all of them extremely successful.
Larry the Cable Guy Net Worth $50 Million
Larry the Cable Guy was born as Daniel Lawrence Whitney on February 17, 1963, in Pawnee City, Nebraska, United States. Larry’s childhood was spent on a pig farm owned by his parents, but moreover, Larry’s father was also famous as a minister of Christians. As a young man Larry the Cable Guy attended the Baptist University of America and later also studied in the University of Nebraska. However, Larry did not finish his studies as he found out about his talent in comedy and decided to earn net worth using his ability rather than continue studying in the university. Now we definitely can tell this was not a wrong decision as it could be seen, nowadays that Lawrence’s net worth is so amazingly huge that he is considered to be one of the richest comedians in the US.
However, Larry’s career which later helped him to such a big net worth, started not so successfully as he would liked. Larry’s debut was in 1995, when the CD entitled “Law and Disorder” was released. This CD did not even have any label and did not hit any number on the US charts, but Larry did not give up and made many other tries. The second CD, “Salutation and Flatulations”, also did not bring a huge amount of money to Larry and did not increase his net worth. But in 2001 a great breakthrough was made – “Lord, I Apologize” was released and immediately hit number 1 on the U.S. chart of comedy. Furthermore, this great disc was certified to be Gold in United States, so now you should not be unsure about the question about how rich is Larry the Cable Guy.
However, this was only the beginning. The next CD was released only three years later and it even surpassed the previous one, as it not only again hit number one in the comedy genre, but also was in 8th place on the global chart.
Talking about Larry’s success in cinema, Whitney’s net worth increased again while appearing in the movie “Blue Collar Comedy Tour: The Movie” directed by C. B. Harding, and later Larry became even more popular thanks to another great movie – “Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector”.
These are the reasons why today the estimated net worth of Larry is so big.
