Kevin Smith- net worth, money and more
Net worth: $25 million
Career / Profession: Screenwriter, actor
Each flick I’ve done is kind of a snapshot of where I was in my life when I wrote it; Clerks II (2006) really speaks to where I am in life at the moment. You don’t have to be an analyst to look at the movie and go, “The Quick Stop means a little more than the Quick Stop, and Florida represents something more than just going to Florida”. That’s kind of where I am. There’s definitely something bittersweet about arriving at Clerks II (2006).”

He once said, “I was a fan of the Daredevil and Green Arrow characters, so it seemed logical to write them. Now I’m kind of interested in taking obscure characters and seeing if we can turn them into top ten books. I mean, DD and GA had somewhat built-in audiences, so there was a basis to work from. But could we take a Doctor Strange book and put that in the top ten? That’d be a fun challenge.” He also admires Edmonton Oilers.
