He has also released a number of DVDs of the shows that he has performed on tour, as well as some behind the scenes footage. These DVDs are popular with people that have had not had the chance to go and see him live because they still get to experience the show.
People who have seen the show already may also buy them as a memento of the evening. Cook will receive some money from every copy of a DVD that is sold and this is on top of the money he would have earned from the tour itself. Some of his shows have been aired on HBO and he would have been paid for the rights to broadcast these shows.
He has also worked as an actor, appearing in films since He has done some TV work, but this has not been as extensive as his work in movies.
He also provided the voice of main character Dusty Crophopper in the Disney animated movies Planes and the sequel. The amount of money that he earns from his acting work will vary from role to role. When he first started acting in films, he was not as well-known as he is now and they tended to be smaller parts and so he may not have been paid all that much. He would have been paid far more for the lead roles he had in films such as Planes and Employee Of The Month. While he has always considered himself to be a comedian rather than an actor, his acting work would have made a valuable contribution to his overall net worth.
His net worth may have been even higher, but a substantial amount of money was embezzled from him by his half brother, Darryl McCauley, whom he employed as his business manager. CNN reported that the couple would be required to pay this amount back to Cook. They also both served time in prison but Cook has not spoken to either of them since they were released. It has never been revealed how much of the money he actually received back.
Although he has not been as active in recent years as he was during the s, he has recently embarked on a new tour.
His sense of humor gave him the chance to host television shows as well. His works were brilliant, which continued to proceed with excess and exuberant fame and recognition.

Dane Cook. Please enter your comment! Opting to hire his half-brother Darryl McCauley to be his business manager, Cook clearly thought that blood was thicker than money but he turned out to be very wrong. In charge of the comedian's business life from until , Dane Cook's half-brother Darryl McCauley stole millions of dollars from him.
Stealing that kind of money from anyone is brutal enough, but taking that much cash from your half-brother is especially deplorable. That said, it seems extremely unlikely that McCauley will ever come close to making enough money to pay back that kind of sum. After selling off that stock, Cook used the cash to rent arenas and put on a comedy tour that helped him to get back on his feet.
At least Dane Cook isn't the only star who has faced off against family in court. Ever since Dane Cook was forced to rebuild his life, he has been much more focused on living a healthy lifestyle and keeping his priorities straight. That is a great thing since so many star have gone broke buying things they didn't need. Of course, Cook is still happy to spend his 36 million dollar fortune on the things that make him happy.
