Amy Poehler Net Worth: How Much Is ‘Parks And Recreation’ Star Making?

A Saturday Night Live alumnus and one of the funniest women on television for the last few years, Amy Poehler's net worth comes from a long time in show business, having also co-starred in a number of films and even hosted the Golden Globe Awards three consecutive times!

Known for her hilarious stint in "Parks and Recreation," as well as for her different projects, Amy Poehler's net worth could be shocking to those who haven't kept up with the actress and comedienne in the last few years; however, after her long tenure in SNL, it's no shock that Poehler's salary has been on the rise.

Recently, the actress made news after she went to Harvard University's Farkas Hall where she was going to get roasted by Hasty Pudding Theatricals, according to Bostinno - however, she proved to the hall that you don't get to have Amy Poehler's net worth for just showing up, and the Golden Globe winner ended up roasting the Harvard kids herself!

"When I was growing up in Burlington, Harvard University used to be a group of buildings we used to throw rocks at on our way to a real job," the actress, a Massachusetts native, told the crowd, then going on to say that she never thought the people from the Ivy League school would ever be giving her so much trouble (although she evidently used a much harder word for it).

While right now Amy Poehler's net worth comes mostly from her work in "Parks and Recreation," the actress has a few other projects going on at the moment, like being the executive producer of the Swedish-American sitcom "Welcome to Sweden," as well as doing the same job in the Comedy Central show "Broad City."

Currently, Amy Poehler's net worth stands at $18 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, and she makes $250 thousand per episode of her hit comedy show "Parks and Recreation" - though it's not clear how much she makes for her other ventures.
