If you’re a die-hard Alias fan and will simply not rest until you know exactly how much money Jennifer Garner made on the show, great news! We just dusted off her paycheck. And if you live and breathe 13 Going on 30 and are respectfully curious about how much Jen made for that seminal role, also great news: We dusted off that paycheck too. Turns out Jennifer Garner has made a ton of money throughout her career and has a reported net worth of $80 million (!) thanks to a combo of her work in movies and TV, lucrative endorsements, a successful brand, and some fancy real estate. Alllll the details, incoming.
Digging Into Jennifer Garner’s Alias Salary
Wondering what Jennifer made for quite literally kicking ass every day on Alias? While her starting salary was ~relatively~ low at $40,000 per episode (aka around $1 million per season), Alias became so popular that she was making $150,000 per episode by the time it ended, according to Entertainment Weekly. This is obviously a ton of money—though not quite as much as what the cast of Friends was making, aka $1 million per episode 🙃 🙃 🙃.
So What Was Jennifer’s 13 Going on 30 Salary?
Obviously, this is the question on everyone’s mind, so let’s get right to it. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Jennifer made $3 million for 13 Going on 30. A lot of money, but not actually her career high. (That appears to be the $7 million she made for The Kingdom in 2007.)

Inside Jennifer’s Super Lucrative Endorsement Deals
Jennifer has worked with major brands like Neutrogena and Capital One—and apparently she makes a lot of money per brand contract! Celebrity Net Worth says Jen “likely” had a 5-year deal worth $15-20 million for her work with Mercedes alone.
Also important: she has her own brand called Once Upon a Farm, and back in 2022 she said, “The business has grown a lot. As a matter of fact, when we were here last time we were less than $1 million a year and now by the end of this year we’re in the $100 million dollars.”
Bennifer Made a Ton Selling Their Mansion
Back when Jennifer was married to Ben Affleck, the couple bought a house in L.A. for $17.55 million. They then sold the home to Adam Levine amid their breakup in 2018 for $32 million. Soooo, they made a profit of $14.5 million. This seems to be the home, if you’d like a tour!

These days, Jennifer lives in a $7.9 million home that she built in Brentwood.
Some Notes on Her Divorce Settlement With Ben
Ben and Jen settled their divorce in 2018, and TMZ said the process was “complicated and time-consuming” due to the “fortune” that needed to be divided and the fact the couple didn’t have a prenup, meaning “all of their earnings during their 12-year marriage went into one pot.”
It’s unclear how much money they each walked away with, but at the time People noted that—because California is a “no-fault” divorce state—”courts typically enforce a 50-50 division of assets, regardless of who earned more money or spent the most during the marriage.”
So yeah: in conclusion, Jennifer Garner is rich to the tune of $80 million. Meanwhile, I’d like to release the following statement to my bank account:
