It has come to our attention that not only is Vanna White a precious gem of a human, but she is also filthy rich.
Vanna White is the cohost of Wheel of Fortune. She's been touching letters and making them light up since 1982! She hasn't done much more than that with her show biz career, and she doesn't want to.
Also, she doesn't need to — because she apparently gets paid A LOT of money to be on Wheel of Fortune.
Cosmopolitan dug out all of the fascinating details of Vanna's income, and some of it may make your jaw drop.

First and foremost, Vanna apparently makes somewhere from $4 to $10 million per year just from cohosting the show. She's business-savvy, too. She once won $403,000 in a lawsuit because Samsung aired a commercial with a robot turning letters on a game show.
But mostly, Vanna is just delightful. She's a homebody who owns her own line of yarn! She's had the same exact job since 1982! This woman is an inspiration.
Vanna White is the cohost of Wheel of Fortune. Her main job is to point at the letters on the board and help show off the prizes to the audience.
And Vanna is, well, great at it! She's been doing it since 1982, after all.
Vanna has now appeared in over 6,600 episodes of the timeless game show. She owns the title recognized by the Guinness World Records for the most frequent clapper.
"They say I have clapped more than 3.9 million times," Vanna told ABC News in 2017. She must have The Strongest Hands.
Vanna is a rare case of a totally unproblematic celebrity who just does her job and minds her business. She's not overly ambitious, and she stays out of trouble.
She explained it to ABC News:
"I get all dressed up like a Barbie doll. I go out. I give someone else’s money away, make them happy, and we all go home. In show business, no, there’s nothing else I want to do. Is that bad?”
It must be working, because she is very successful and extremely rich.
She gets paid millions of dollars every year to be on the show, Cosmopolitan reports. One source puts her annual income at $4 million, while another puts it at $10 million.
Either way, that is an awful lot of money.
And it's an even better deal when you take into consideration that Vanna works only four days per month.
FOUR DAYS. That's… I… what?! This woman won at life.
At this point, Vanna's net worth sits at $50 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Not bad for a job that her cohost Pat Sajak calls "playing hangman on TV."
She put her Hollywood mansion up for sale in November 2017 for $47.5 million — so when that sells, she'll be approximately two times richer.
The mansion features eight bedrooms, a home gym, a spa, and a private vineyard.
So what does Vanna do with the other 27 days of the month? Well, she likes to hang out at home a lot.
"I’m shy. I’m not outgoing. I’m a homebody,” Vanna said. “I am on TV, but you know, it’s interesting. How much do I talk on TV?”
She used to flip houses, but she's not so much into that anymore.
"I’m a businesswoman. You know, I have other investments too, real estate,” Vanna said. "A long time ago, I would buy a house and flip it. But now everybody does that so I don’t do that anymore because there’s no houses out there to buy.”
She also loves to crochet, and she has her own line of yarn. Yarn!!!
Vanna is a mom of two, and she reportedly has a lovely boyfriend named John.
She and Pat have only ever had one fight in their 36 years of working together. It was over condiments.
"I put ketchup on my hot dog," Vanna said. "He thought it was absolutely disgusting."
Pat also explained how humble and realistic Vanna is about her job.
"If you say to Vanna, ‘What do you do for a living?’ She won’t say, ‘Well, I’m a facilitator, and I hope to one day direct it.’ She goes, ‘You know, I touch a letter and they light up.'"
"I’ll be the first to make fun of what I do, absolutely," Vanna said. "Because it’s a crazy job, but I love my job, and it’s great. And I think it brings a lot of happiness to people."
And also a lot of money.
