How Much Is The DJ Really Worth?
While music artists earn a majority of their money through album sales and touring, Marshmello — whose real name is Chris Comstock, according to Forbes — earns his through playing sets at nightclubs and festivals around the world. Marshmello earns "six-figure nightly fees," and collaborates with artists on a "song-by-song basis," meaning he can work from artists on different labels and collaborate with top artists who are known to sell.
Marshmello also launched a YouTube series called "Cooking With Marshmello," on his channel, which boasts 52.6 million subscribers and millions of views per video. It is likely that Marshmello earns a significant amount of money as a YouTube creator, as well. Not to mention the fact that he also opened his own nightclub and is a stakeholder in a marshmallow brand called "Stuffed Puffs," as well as investments in apps, per Forbes.
While Celebrity Net Worth estimates that Marshmello has a net worth of $44 million, that figure may be too low, as Forbes has the DJ at a whopping $56 million.
As for how Marshmello spends his millions, he recently purchased a nearly 8,000-square-foot mansion in L.A. for $10 million, per The Dirt. The lavish home boasts five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, a library, a pool, hot tub, and more.
Marshmello credits his worth ethic for getting him to where he is today, telling Complex in April that he's "addicted" to making music and hopes to foster the next generation of DJs.
