First, let’s talk about the OG members, because that’s where the real dough was made. The founding lineup—Anthony, Murray, Jeff, and Greg—built an empire from the ground up. By the early 2000s, they were reportedly pulling in $60 million a year collectively from touring, merchandise, and TV deals. Yes, you read that correctly: sixty million. For singing about a dog named Dorothy.
But wait, that number includes the whole operation—not just their personal paychecks. Individually, each original member was likely earning around $5 to $10 million a year at the peak. Not bad for wearing a skivvy and pretending to wobble, right? Now, the current lineup (who are also fantastic, don’t @ me) earns less, because the brand has shifted. Reports suggest new members like Lachy or Emma make closer to $200,000 to $500,000 annually. Still a dream job, but a far cry from the golden era.
