Annual Salaries Of Your Beloved TV Presenters – See How Much They Take Home
Colin Jost, $525K/ Year – Saturday Night Live
Having worked his way up from writer to co-head writer and later writing supervisor on ‘Saturday Night Live,’ it’s no surprise that Colin Jost makes $25K per episode of the comedy show. That means, with an appearance on every episode of a season, Jost bags a whooping $525K a year, which is minus his earnings from co-anchoring ‘Weekend Update.’
With a background as a writer for the ‘Staten Island Advance’ newspaper and later ‘Nickelodeon’s’ ‘Kappa Mikey,’ it’s easy to see how the former Harvard graduate scored a gig at one of the longest-running comedy shows on TV. He’s well-read and funny, which makes for a perfect combination for a TV star who can stand the test of time.
