The CBS show follows a team of special agents from the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, who investigate crimes involving the US Navy and Marine Corps. The police procedural drama has been on screens for nearly twenty years now, so unsurprisingly, the stars of the show have amassed some incredible fortunes.
But what are those stars worth? From Pauley Perette and Mark Harmon, to still current stars like Wilmer Valderrama, keep reading to find out more about the shows stars’ incredible wealth…
