Josh Peck Reveals Child Star Earnings

Josh Peck recently disclosed details about his earnings as a child star. While on The Amanda Show between 2000 and 2002, he received $3,000 for each episode.

By the conclusion of Drake & Josh, which aired from January 2004 to September 2007, the average payment per episode had increased significantly to $15,000. Over the show's four-year run and 60 episodes, Peck calculated his total earnings to be around $900,000.

However, Peck emphasized that this figure was before considerable deductions. Agents, managers, and taxes accounted for roughly half of his income, meaning his actual take-home pay was closer to $450,000. Despite this, he acknowledged that the income was still substantial for the time he worked on the series.
