He's laughing all the way to the bank.
"Comedy Central host Jon Stewart regularly bashes American multimillionaires for their wealth while ignoring the awkward fact that he?s one of them.
Though Stewart distances himself from the ?one-percenters? and bellows over their extravagance, his bank accounts bear all the marks of the ?multi, multi, multi, multi millionaires? he mocks. The 49-year-old Stewart, born Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz, makes more than 300 times the median American salary, owns three luxury homes and sometimes doesn?t pay his taxes.
In January Stewart exploded on-air over Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney?s income level. ?That?s almost ? that?s almost $57,000 a day!? he gushed.
But Stewart?s own income level brings him and his wife Tracey approximately $41,000 a day. The celebrity income-handicapping website Celebrity Net Worth lists his annual salary as $15 million and estimates his net worth at $80 million."
