Quick answer: Celebrity Net Worth prints Jared Rushton at $500 thousand. The profile’s JSON stamp is datePublished 16 January 2017 and dateModified 19 December 2023. That is the named compiler figure. It is not a filing, Celebrity Net Worth does not show its work, and a December 2023 modification is not a documented 2026 appraisal.
| Full name | Jared Michael Rushton |
|---|---|
| Age | Not stated as a number. Born 3 March 1974. |
| Known for | Overboard, Big, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, Pet Sematary |
| Birthplace | Provo, Utah |
| Net worth | $500,000 is the Celebrity Net Worth print, JSON modified 19 December 2023. It is not a filing and not a 2026 appraisal. Forbes publishes no living net worth. |
Forbes does not print a living net worth. A Forbes profile under his name 404s. The previous version of this page put him somewhere between several hundred thousand dollars and over $1 million in 2026, with no publisher under the range. Clone pages that say $100,000–$1 million, $1 million or $2 million are the same class. This page does not average them with $500,000, and it does not invent residuals from Big or Honey, I Shrunk the Kids to “explain” the compiler.
What $500,000 is — and what $2 million is not
| Quantity | What it would measure | What is published |
|---|---|---|
| Living net worth, dated | What one publisher thinks he owns minus what he owes | $500,000, Celebrity Net Worth, JSON modified 19 December 2023. Unexplained. A 2023 stamp is not a 2026 appraisal. Forbes: no ticker |
| Prior page range | A 2026 fortune, if it had a publisher | Several hundred thousand dollars to over $1 million. No organisation named. Not confirmation of CNW |
| Clone $100,000–$1 million / $2 million | A second fortune, if those pages were compilers | CelebsMoney, Cine Net Worth, The Legit. No publisher under the rows. Cine Net Worth even prints $500,000 and $1 million on the same URL. Not averaged here |
| Big / Honey, I Shrunk the Kids / Overboard | Credits | Wikipedia filmography. Not a child-star residual we opened. Not Tom Hanks’s money |
| Saturn / Young Artist nominations | Awards mentions | Wikipedia’s lead: two Saturn and two Young Artist. Wikipedia’s table: two Saturn and four Young Artist rows. Celebrity Net Worth: two Saturn and four Young Artist. Three writings. We are not picking a winner, and nominations are not pay |
| Deal by Dusk | A band Celebrity Net Worth names | CNW: guitar. Wikipedia does not use that name. Not a touring P&L |
| Withdrawal | A band Wikipedia names | Wikipedia: sung and/or played guitar, including Withdrawal with his brother Ryan, marked citation needed. Not Deal by Dusk merged into one act |
| Years active | A career window | Wikipedia infobox: 1986–2000. Wikipedia also lists a 2020 Prop Culture appearance as himself. Two writings on the same article |
| “Sarah J Rushton” / children | A household | The previous page. No named outlet opened. Out |
A compiler stock is not a residual stream. A Disney family gross is not a supporting-part cheque. Adding Tom Hanks’s fortune, or swapping in $2 million because it looks more like a “where are they now,” is how a former child actor becomes a fabricated mid-tier estate.
The credits, without a priced empire
Wikipedia is the compiled credits list we opened. Jared Michael Rushton was born in Provo, Utah, on 3 March 1974. Celebrity Net Worth agrees on the date and the town. Wikipedia’s article carries a BLP-sources tag; we are still using it as the encyclopaedia, labelled as Wikipedia.
Wikipedia: Tales from the Darkside in 1986; Overboard (1987) as Charlie Proffitt; Lady in White and Big (1988), Billy Francis Kopecki opposite Tom Hanks’s character; Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989) as Ron Thompson; A Cry in the Wild; Pet Sematary Two as Clyde Parker; Roseanne as Chip Lang for three season-one episodes. Later television Wikipedia lists includes Murder, She Wrote, Midnight Caller, Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, Dead Man’s Walk as Wesley Buttons. Those are roles. They are not valuations. We are not stacking Hanks, Kurt Russell or Edward Furlong onto this URL.
Celebrity Net Worth’s narrative matches the core films and names Deal by Dusk. Wikipedia, at the turn of the millennium, says he switched his professional focus to music and has sung and/or played guitar with several bands, including Withdrawal, of which his brother Ryan is also a member — a sentence Wikipedia flags as citation needed. Two labelled bands. We are not merging them, and we are not printing a gig fee.
Nominations that are not a second fortune
Wikipedia’s lead says two Saturn Awards and two Young Artist Awards. The same article’s nominations table lists Saturn nods for Big and Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, then four Young Artist rows (Big, Kidsongs, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, A Cry in the Wild). Celebrity Net Worth says two Saturn Awards and four Young Artist Awards. The table and the compiler agree on four Young Artist lines; the encyclopaedia’s own lead does not. We are printing the conflict. None of those rows is a cheque.
Family facts this page is not going to invent
The previous version named a spouse, Sarah J Rushton, and “reports” of children, sourced to “publicly available biography sources.” Wikipedia has no wife in the infobox we opened. Celebrity Net Worth does not name one. We are not keeping a household on that citation. For another page on this site that keeps a co-star’s compiler off the ledger, see Kiele Sanchez. For clone millions with no publisher, see Katie Van Slyke. For a 2023 compiler stamp that is still not a 2026 fortune by itself, see Lolo Wood — that URL has no ticker at all.
What this page cannot tell you
We cannot tell you that $500,000 is right. Celebrity Net Worth does not show its work, and Forbes never entered. We cannot tell you what Big or Honey, I Shrunk the Kids paid, then or in residuals. We cannot tell you Deal by Dusk’s or Withdrawal’s take. We cannot tell you he is worth $2 million because a clone said so. We cannot tell you why he left acting as if we had his diary. We cannot tell you the name of a wife Wikipedia does not print.
We can tell you what one compiler printed, last modified 19 December 2023, that Forbes has no ticker, that the Young Artist count is not one number across the pages we opened, and that Tom Hanks’s money does not belong in this FAQ.
How we research this page
Every figure on this page is attributed to the organisation that published it, with the date it was published, because estimates from different publishers are not interchangeable and they go stale at different speeds.
We used Celebrity Net Worth, JSON modified 19 December 2023 and first published 16 January 2017, for the $500,000. We opened Forbes and did not find a Jared Rushton wealth profile. We used Wikipedia for the compiled credits, the 1974 birth date, the Withdrawal sentence, the infobox years, the 2020 Prop Culture row, and the awards lead-versus-table split. Celebrity Net Worth is the opened source for Deal by Dusk and for “four Young Artist Awards” as that site writes it.
We do not average clone $1 million or $2 million figures with Celebrity Net Worth. We do not convert a film credit, a nomination or a band name into a living net worth. From the previous version of this page we removed the unsourced range, the residual guess, the Sarah J Rushton household, and the mind-read about why he stopped acting. Our approach is described in more detail on our About Us page.
Bottom line
Jared Rushton is worth $500,000 according to Celebrity Net Worth, as of a 19 December 2023 modification. Forbes does not currently print a competing fortune. Clone millions are not a second compiler. A 2023 stamp is not a 2026 appraisal.
What holds up without Tom Hanks’s backend, or an invented residual from a shrinking gag, is narrower and more useful. A $500,000 print the compiler does not explain. Credits that stay credits. Two band names that stay two band names. An awards lead that does not match its own table. And an FAQ that no longer needs a wife named Sarah, sourced to no one, to look finished.
