We usually see what fans have to say about their favorite shows and stars. Although the cast of How I Met Your Mother earned big money during the run of the show, one fan went a step further. A Reddit user decided to calculate how much the character Barney Stinson is worth, played by acclaimed actor Neil Patrick Harris. The fan came to the conclusion that Stinson’s net worth is $1.17 million. That said, the actor did earn $210K per episode, which actually makes his bank account considerably larger than that of his character.
