Not only he makes 1 mil p. being a presenter, he also writes for 3 newspapers & Top Gear magazine, releases a new motoring video every year which sells (i think) for 500k-1m copies or more, he's shopping new books almost every year & hosts a range of extra tv-shows & documentaries. I think all of it adds up to much much more than 1 mil p.

I think he's justified having a pay increase. I suppose it would explain why on the earlier series we never saw as much of him as JC and Hammond.
1 Million pounds is equal to roughly AUD$2.4M. Not bad work, really. |

as long as we're on houses, we can see parts of Richard's country cottage in "Should I Worry About", for those who haven't seen any of it yet

I think not. His Isle Of Man house isn't exactly what you would call...central:
![]() Its right on the tip of the island. Also very close to the airport, maybe not such a nice location? Zegna: I can see what you mean. He clearly doesn't live on a tight bend:

Clarkson does quite a bit of writing, and has a few best sellers.

all the richest men and women in the world are so because their jobs/venture/whatever are terribly self centered. hedge fund bankers for example work incredibly hard...but theyre only doing it for themselves and a few others. their expense is a stressful way of life, they earn lots, but equally have the potential to be completely ruined at least with the media the big pita is being in the public eye all the time and again one slip up like calling a black man you no what or getting caught with half a bag of coke up your nose and your ruined. whereas men and women who devote their time to saving people, rescuing people and furthering the human race get paid a lot less its all about risk really..... those jobs have a higher risk of losing it all. so while they still got it, they get paid lots |
