Question

Fans question how much money Jerry's paycheck was for in the Cadillac episode and discuss his apparent financial status as a stand-up comedian.

In the one where Jerry buys his dad the caddie, he gets back from a job and shows everyone his paycheck for the job. Does it ever say how much it is(or is anyone connected enough to know).

They never said, and it was just a blank piece of prop paper. The important point was that he made enough as a stand-up comedian to buy his father a brand new fully loaded Cadillac, and to impress Elaine.

no it never says...but you will have to use your imagination..it was enough for a caddie at the snap of a finger..enough to make elaine re-consider her attraction to jerry and enough to just plain freak kramer out

He also discarded a fairly new car because of the smell, apparently had an easy $5,000 to loan to Elaine (at Kramer's request), buys a suede jacket and is embarrassed to tell anyone the cost, and everybody raids his refrigerator on a continual basis - and he never bats an eye. But he also appears to be the only one that is continually employed.

Either he's very serious about that remark, or he's playing off a really stupid stereotype that all Jewish people are rich.

Geez, that actually sounds like something my grandfather would say. :-)
