Rick Singer was at the center of the college admissions scandal, “Operation Varsity Blues,” where wealthy parents paid him to get their unqualified children into prestigious universities. I’m curious to know how much money he accumulated from this scheme and what his current net worth is after facing legal repercussions.

Estimates suggest his pre-scandal earnings from the scheme could be around $25 million. However, it’s important to consider several factors:
- Legal Fees and Fines: Singer faced a hefty fine of $1.25 million and potentially could have had more assets seized.
- Lifestyle Spending: Some reports suggest he spent a significant portion of the earnings on himself.
- Current Earning Potential: The scandal likely hinders his ability to return to his previous line of work.
Some sources estimate his current net worth around $3.5 million, but this might not reflect the full impact of the legal case.
