in Cleveland, United States.

The Price is Right Salary: Drew earns $12.5 million per year hosting "Price". That's enough to make him one of 20 highest-paid TV hosts in the world.
Personal Life and Earnings Details: He was previously engaged to Nicole Jaracz from 2007 to 2012, and announced his engagement to sex therapist Amie Harwick January 2018, although the couple ended their engagement later that year in November.
His impressive net worth is the result of many years in comedy. In addition to his success in television comedy and in the world of game shows, Carey is also famous for his activism toward the cause of public libraries. He often donates time and money to keeping the libraries open and operational. Carey, in a somewhat counter-intuitive move due to his interest in libraries, is also an outspoken member of the Libertarian party, which has called for limited government and lower taxes. But, in the eyes of most of the viewing public, he remains lovable old Drew, with his trademark spectacles and slightly nervous onscreen persona.
