Ben Affleck has earned millions throughout his career — here’s how he makes and spends his money

After “Good Will Hunting” Affleck worked his way into becoming a major Hollywood star with movies like “Armageddon,” “Pearl Harbor,” and “Daredevil.”

For the last few decades, Affleck has built up to earning eight-figure paydays, including his turn as Batman in DC Comic movies “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” and “Justice League.”

Thanks to the backend deal Affleck had for “Batman v Superman,” Affleck took in $43 million in 2016, a high water mark in the actor’s career at that point, according to Forbes.

The sprawling estate, which he paid $7 million according to Dirt, features a main residence that has three bedrooms and five bathrooms and is 6,000 square feet.

Another, larger house dubbed the “Oyster House” is 10,000 square feet with five bedrooms, three master suites, plus bunk beds for kids visiting. And it has its own dock.

Affleck has put the home on the market several times, but after reconnecting with former flame Jennifer Lopez, he took it off the market and hosted the couple’s marriage celebration there.

Affleck married Garner in 2005. The two separated in 2015 and their divorce was finalized in 2018.

While together, the couple bought an 8,800-square-foot property in the posh Pacific Palisades section of Los Angeles in 2009 from producer Brian Grazer for $17.5 million.

In 2019, they made a profit when selling the house. It went for $32 million.

Affleck and Lopez  stopped house hunting since their marriage. According to TMZ, the newlyweds decided to live in Lopez’s current home, which is on 8 acres and is 14,000 square feet, with 7 bedrooms, and 13 bathrooms. But it’s currently being remodeled and may not be done for over a year.

So, the couple rented out the $60 million home of Australian businessman James Packer in the meantime.

On August 20, 2024, Lopez represented herself in court without a lawyer while filing for divorce from Affleck. The date marks the second anniversary of their Georgia wedding ceremony.

She waived her claim to spousal support and requested the judge do the same for Affleck.

Lopez listed the date of separation as April 26, before rumors about their split began to circulate.
