As mentioned above, Oscar Nunez has an estimated net worth of $3 million, which comprises his earnings as an actor. He is also a prolific comedian and previously performed on hundreds of shows with theater and comedy companies.

Income From Comedy And Theater Shows

After taking acting and writing classes in several colleges in New York, Oscar Nunez started his comedy career. He was a member of the theater company, The Shock of the Funny, and reportedly performed in more than three hundred shows with the company. In addition to these shows, Nunez also appeared in various theater plays in Washington and New York.

Oscar Nunez then moved to Los Angeles in the mid-1990s, where he became a member of improvisational and sketch comedy troupe, The Groundlings. He not only performed with them for several years but also utilized his writing training to write and star in the production Smooth Down There.

Unlike the thousands of dollars he currently receives for appearing in television shows and films, the Cuban-American actor's salary during his time with the theater and comedy companies might have been a lot less. However, Oscar Nunez's net worth must have been impacted by the sum he received after every performance he was part of with the groups.

Income From Television Series

After spending years performing on-stage, Oscar Nunez made his television debut with a minor role in the show, Curb Your Enthusiasm in 2000. He then continued to book small appearances in several series and only managed to secure a significant role in 2005 in the sitcom The Office. He was a regular cast member for the show for all nine seasons and even appeared on several webisodes for The Office.

Even when Nunez was on the NBC sitcom, he continued to appear in few episodes of other series. He has been part of shows like Benched, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, People of Earth, Life in Pieces, among others. His most recent television project is Mr. Iglesias, where he played the character, Carlos Hernandez.

As the actors in small-screen are all paid according to the number of episodes they appear in, Oscar's earnings might vary per show. His co-star from The Office, Jenna Fischer, was paid $100K per episode during the later seasons. However, Nunez's salary must have been a little less than hers since he had less screen time than Fischer. 

Nevertheless, the total income from all of his television appearances has undoubtedly helped increase Oscar Nunez's net worth significantly.
