How Much Money Frank Fritz Made From American Pickers

Donning casual t-shirts and pants, driving around in fairly average vehicles, and willingly diving head-first into piles of dusty, dirty antiques, the duo of Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz doesn't embody the like blueprint of a couple of rich, high society guys. The rustic look of their Antique Archaeology stores further drives this point home, but don't let the wrapper fool you. Both men make bank on the program, raking in roughly $500,000 per season (via Tickld) — amounting to a total payout of $10.5 million for Fritz for the 21 seasons he appeared on.

As of this writing, Fritz's net worth is estimated at around $6 million, which is certainly a number one can live fairly comfortably on. However, of the two main "Pickers" hosts, it's Mike Wolfe who has gone above and beyond to make a living away from their television series. He makes a fair amount of cash through merchandise sales at the two Antique Archaeology shops and has dipped his toe in the real estate pool. His Nashville location is built on an old car manufacturing plant, leaving room for a café, brewery, photography studio, and more.

Frank Fritz may not have harnessed as many revenue streams as Mike Wolfe, but his financial situation is far from dire. Even though the "American Pickers" checks are no longer coming, it's evident that the funds from the show will supplement his bank account as he moves on to other endeavors.
