Though Ridiculousness is known for showing funny fail videos, Rob Dyrdek earns a lot of money because the show produces a huge number of episodes – 336 each year, almost one per day! Since the show began in 2011, there have been over 1,500 episodes. Dyrdek profits from each episode in two ways: as an on-screen personality and as an executive producer. He currently earns $61,000 per episode for appearing on camera and $21,000 as a producer, plus around $10 million in bonuses. When his contract is renegotiated, his on-camera fee will increase to $101,000 per episode. This puts him on track to earn at least $45 million annually by the end of his contract, before any bonuses are added.
