Joan Vassos is a woman of many talents, but how much did she actually cash in from her television appearances? Here’s a look.
Joan Vassos may not have won over Gerry Turner on The Golden Bachelor, but as ABC’s inaugural Golden Bachelorette, she’s quickly become the center of attention, with a whole new group of men eager to win her heart.
Naturally, now that she’s the one everyone’s watching, people can’t help but wonder, what’s her net worth, and how much is this stunning lady really worth beyond her golden years?
How Much Did Joan Vassos Earn from Both The Golden Bachelor and The Golden Bachelorette?
Joan Vassos hasn’t spilled the beans on how much she’s pocketing for her time on The Golden Bachelorette, but it’s safe to assume she’s not going home empty-handed.
Typically, leads on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette get paid for their time on the show, and the numbers are far from ordinary. While the exact figures are kept a secret, rumors, courtesy of Reality Steve, suggest most leads rake in at least $100,000 for their 40-day filming stint, that’s roughly $2,500 a day.

Since Joan made such a strong impression on The Golden Bachelor, it’s likely she’s earning a bit more than the usual salary for her role as the lead on The Golden Bachelorette.
In fact, she could very well be making more than Gerry Turner himself. As for the suitors vying for her attention? They’re not seeing a dime. While it’s unclear exactly how much Vassos earned for The Golden Bachelor, it’s speculated that it would have been less than what she’s receiving for The Golden Bachelorette, given she wasn’t the lead there. It’s also possible that she didn’t get paid at all for her earlier appearance.
