Dillon said, “You are now the wealthiest comedian really, other than Seinfeld that’s ever lived. That’s pretty much the truth.”
To this, Rogan said, “I think Kevin Hart has more money than me.”
Rogan’s guest agreed and said, “That might be true. … But he won’t. … You leave the planet a billionaire. I think so.”
Dillon further explained his idea about how he thought Rogan could become a billionaire quickly. He thought that with a few right moves, Rogan could make it even bigger.
As per ‘Celebrity Net Worth‘, the Spotify podcaster currently has a net worth of $120 million. In comparison, Kevin Hart has a net worth of a whopping $450 million.
However, Seinfeld defeats the comedians together with a huge net worth of $950 million. He thus remains one of the wealthiest comedians.
