Can we get an "m," "o," "n," "e," and a "y," please? Pat Sajak certainly can — and has been since he was asked to take over for Chuck Woolery as the host of Wheel of Fortune in 1981. In 2019, Sajak received the Guinness World Records title for having the longest career as a host for the same game show thanks to his 35 years and 198 days with Wheel, an impressive tenure that has also led him to an annual salary of $15 million, according to Forbes, which adds to his estimated net worth of $65 million. 

Celebrity Net Worth breaks down his earnings, explaining that the show tapes four days per month, so "that's 48 days per year of work to earn $15 million per year. ...That means... Pat earns $312,500 per work day [and] $52,083 per show."

Sajak talked to USA Today about Wheel of Fortune in 2019, saying, "We're sort of a safe-haven half-hour where nobody gets hurt, and everybody has fun. If I went in to pitch this show to a network today, the pitch would last about eight seconds, and they'd go, 'Thank you, next,' 'cause it's old-fashioned. (That hasn't stopped major networks from reviving other classic game shows). We're just playing hangman and spinning a giant wheel and yet it's become a part of people's daily ritual, and it's a nice spot to be in."
