Jon Hamm Net Worth: After ‘Mad Men’ Finale, Rehab And ‘Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’ … Jon Hamm Rich As Don Draper?

Well known for being one of the most handsome men on television aside from arguably among the most talented following his seven-season run in AMC's hit show "Mad Men" as troubled advertising genius Don Draper, what is Jon Hamm's net worth?

Earlier this year, Jon Hamm's net worth became the subject of headlines as the Golden Globe-winning actor announced via spokespeople that he had been to rehab over an addiction to alcohol, something that was widely reported in the media seeing as he had been playing an alcoholic for the better part of the decade on television.

Although Hamm had been working in the film industry since 2000 (his first major screen role was in Clint Eastwood's "Space Cowboys," where he played a minor role as a pilot), but it wasn't until the release of "Mad Men" that Jon Hamm's net worth began to really rise, as audiences fell in love with his deeply troubled character with a dark past.

Over the course of the series, Hamm's portrayal Don Draper has turned into one of the most iconic male characters in recent television memory, in a list that includes Tony Soprano, Walter White and most recently Frank Underwood; as such, Jon Hamm's net worth has been constantly on the rise since the 2007 premiere of the iconic series.

Last Sunday, the world saw the ending to the iconic show after its 13th episode premiered, marking the end of an era for television - but not for Jon Hamm's net worth.

While playing one of the most tormented characters in pop culture in the small screen, Hamm has dedicated a good portion of his recent career to comedic roles (besides his other dramatic endeavor co-starring "Harry Potter" actor Daniel Radcliffe, in the British show "A Young Doctor's Notebook"); he often excels at comedy perhaps even more than in drama, having co-starred in "30 Rock" and recently collaborated on another Tina Fey show, the Netflix sitcom "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" - not to mention his coming role in voice acting in "Minions."

Currently, Celebrity Net Worth reports that Jon Hamm's net worth stands at $30 million, making $275 thousand an episode by the time "Mad Men" ended - definitely richer than his adman alter ego!
