How Did Kevin Hart Make His Money & Wealth?

Hart was born in Philadelphia in 1979, raised by a single mother. After graduating high school, he attended Temple University before deciding to attend community college in New York City. During his time in New York, he dedicated himself to his comedy career. Before he started having successful shows, however, he worked as a shoe salesman. Hart’s comedy shows in New York and Philadelphia weren’t necessarily well-received. He hadn’t yet developed his own style of comedy, and so many felt as though he was just copying the routines of other comedians that had come before him. Once he started doing shows in Massachusetts, though, he had better luck. In 2000, he earned a recurring role in Judd Apatow’s Undeclared, which was a TV series that was considered to be a spiritual successor to the Freaks and Geeks series.

From there, his career really took off. He continued to have successful shows in the New England area, and was given roles in films like Scary Movie 3 and Little Fockers. In 2008, Hart released his first stand-up album, I’m a Grown Little Man. He kicked off his first tour for that act the next year. He has had three other TV specials and tours since then. He has also seen a lot of success in the film industry. Hart starred alongside Ice Cube in the films Ride Along and Ride Along 2, and he will star alongside Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in Central Intelligence later this summer.
