Christopher Knight Net Worth $15 Million
Christopher Knight’s net worth puts him among Hollywood’s millionaires, but things weren’t always like this for the actor. He was actually born into a poor family of stage actors, who had always seen the TV industry as a form of making money, and not as an art. Before “Brady”, he’d been in commercials for big companies like Toyota, Tide, and Cheerios and he had appreciated appearances in “Gunsmoke” and “Mannix”, two popular TV shows of the time. A few years after “The Brady Bunch” show was over, Christopher Knight focused on his career in the IT, movement which brought him a lot of success. Christopher Knight hasn’t completely retired from the entertainment industry and he continued to have guest appearances in movies and television series after 1974, such as “That ’70s Show”, “Light Years Away”, “Beautiful”, and “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”. Of course all these activities contributed to Christopher’s net worth.
Christopher’s first corporate job was at Martec, Inc., where he registered the company’s first $1 million sales order after less than two years in the field. After being Martec’s top performer as an account sales manager, in 1989 Christopher Knight went to New Image Industry, to be the company’s Vice-President of Design System Marketing and Sales. He subsequently founded three companies, Visual Software in 1991, Kidwise Learningware in 1995, and Eskape Labs in 1998. At the end of the ‘90s, he started doing business in television, first as Vice-President of Marketing at Ixmicro, and then in his own TV tuner company. During his career in the corporate world, he has succeeded in influencing sales, making huge profits and growing his companies’ efficiency.
In 2005, he appeared in the fourth season of “The Surreal Life”, a reality television series which has completely changed his life, both from the professional and personal points of view. After this experience, he had his own celebrity reality television show on VH1, called “My Fair Brady”, which followed his life with his girlfriend and, from the second season, wife, Adrianne Curry. The show lasted for three seasons. The couple divorced after five years of marriage. After more seasons in reality shows, in 2008, the reality shows star hosted the game show, Trivial Pursuit: America Plays. He continues to work in the high tech industry and, in the same time, he is following his career in television and entertainment.
