Rico Rodriguez Net Worth $4 Million
Rico`Rodriguez’ parents, Diane and Roy, have their own business. Rico has two brothers, but an important influence has been his older sister Raini, who has also been an actress since 2006. It was probably Raini who inspired Rico to start his career in acting, thus accumulating considerable net worth from early childhood. As Rico claims, he was about to become a “NASCAR chef going to the moon” one day. Raini was born in 1993, is mostly notable for her roles in the TV show “Austin & Ally”, and in the movie “Paul Blart: Mall Cop”.
Rico Rodriguez has already earned himself a Screen Actor’s Guild Awards for Best Ensemble in a Comedy Series twice, in 2011 and 2012, for his role in the American sitcom “Modern Family”. The series has been shown over five seasons totalling 120 episodes, and his role has increased Rico Rodriguez’ net worth by $70,000 per each episode, so nowadays not only adults have great incomes and luxurious life, but also a few children count the millions of dollars going into their accounts. “Modern Family”, which debuted in 2009, has been particularly successful, having received a Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy, Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series, three Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series, as well as the aforementioned awards including to Rico.
Not long ago, Rico Rodriguez came into prominence as a writer, too, so his net worth increased even more with the publication of his own book “Reel Life Lessons…So Far” (2006), which consists largely of hilarious anecdotes from his real family life.

In 2015, Rico is also going to be heard as a voice talent in the computer animated film “El Americano: The Movie” produced by Animex, Olmos Productions and Phil Roman Entertainment.
