Simon Maxwell Helberg was born on 9 December 1980, in Los Angeles, California USA and was raised in Judaism. Simon is a well-known actor, who is perhaps most famous for his role in one of the most successful and famous contemporary television shows, called “The Big Bang Theory”. As he is only 34 years old, there is a high chance that he will become even more popular in the future.
Simon Helberg Net Worth $4 Million
So how rich is Simon Helberg? It is estimated that Simon’s net worth is $4 million, the main source of his wealth is, undoubtedly, Simon’s appearance in “The Big Bang Theory”, which earns him a reputed $100,000 per episode. His other activities also have added to his net worth.
Both Simon’s parents were involved in the acting industry, so he was probably influenced by this when he chose the career of an actor. Simon studied at the Crossroads School where he was more interested in martial arts than drama, but then continued his studies at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. At first he collaborated with Derek Waters and they started performing together. They became quite well-known, and this allowed them to create other projects together. They acted in two short films: “Derek & Simon: A Been and a Cigarette”, and “Derel & Simon: The Pity Card”. What is more, they had their own web series, which brought them more acclaim. This collaboration was a great start for Simon and had a huge impact on the growth of his net worth. In 2002 Simon became a part of the “MADtv”. In the same year he also acted in the movie called “Van Wilder”. This also made Simon Helberg’s net worth grow. In 2007 Simon secured the role that changed his life, that of Howard Wolowitz in “The Big Bang Theory”. He still continues acting in this show, and it has gained him recognition all around the world. During the filming of this show Simon has had an opportunity to meet such actors as Kaley Cuoco, Kunal Nayya, Johnny Galecki and others. Other shows and movies that Simon has appeared in include, “A Cinderella Story”, “Let Go”, “Undeclared”, “The Jake Effect” and others. All these appearances added up to Simon’s net worth.
In all, Simon Helberg has appeared in over 20 big screen and TV films, as well as more than 100 TV series’ episodes, in addition to ehight series of “ The Big Bang Theory”. During his career Simon has been nominated for and has won various awards, including People’s Choice Award, Screen Actors Guild Award, Teen Choice Award and others. Undoubtedly, Simon will continue to achieve more praise and acclaim.
If to talk about Simon Helberg’s personal life, it can be said that he married Jocelyn Towne in 2007 and now they have two children. All in all, Simon Helberg is a very promising actor, who already has a lot of experience and will surely become even more successful in the future. Let’s hope that soon his fans will hear more about his new projects.

We're going to do a natural birth. At first she was like, 'We should do it at home,' and I said, 'Look, either way, when you go into labor, I will be checking into a hospital... so if you want to come along, come along.

I walked into the wrong examination room. I'm bad enough at facial recognition... I saw more that day than I cared to. Fortunately, I didn't recognize her from that angle, whoever it was, and I didn't ask. I'm off to a rocky start on the road to fatherhood, but I got a free view.

I thought it was going to be a hut in Topanga and Janis Joplin was going to come out, but it's a real doctor... I went to Beverly Hills to meet this midwife; you'd think they'd be in nature.

I wouldn't wear turtlenecks. That I'm not envious of. But who knows? I might sneak out a few things and hope and pray that no one says, 'Hey, didn't you wear that when you were playing an enormous geek on TV?'

I actually struggled through teaching myself to cook because I'm completely ignorant in the kitchen. So I did really macho things like trying to make my own curry. Really hardcore stuff.

Actually, when I was young, I believe I met Nicolas Cage. I think I was probably eight, and I remember seeing him at somebody's house - it was an event and he happened to be there. People would ask me if I was his son, because I looked like him at that point, so I do remember feeling some connection and just wanting to say, like, 'Papa!'

Well, I think that everybody is kind of a nerd at heart.

I don't believe I'll be in the new Arrested Development (2003) unless they ask me, in which case, okay! That's how easy I am to get.
