MATTHEW PERRY

The show Friends has six puzzle pieces, and Matthew Perry is one of them. He was born in Williamstown, Massachusetts, on August 19, 1969. To hone his innate skills in acting he moved to Los Angeles at age 15 and entered The Buckley School and LA Connection.

Perry had numerous appearances such as on Second Chance and Boys Will Be Boys, before landing his most iconic role of Chandler Bing in the classic sitcom Friends. Just like his co-stars Jennifer Anniston and Courtney Cox, the show boosted Matthew’s career as well as his finances. His reported earnings for the ten seasons of the show is $90 million, which is just the base salary. Perry annually received $10 million to $20 million backend bonuses and royalties even if he would just sit in a beachfront estate he bought in Malibu, a property he acquired probably without the need of a mortgage.
