Through moving cast reunions or amazing scene amusements, Jennifer Aniston doesn’t seem to have any trouble reflecting on her time on The Companions. The performer has discovered what she purchased with her most cherished Companions check—the largest Rachel Green ever spent.
The performer described her “first large lavish expenditure” following her appearance on the influential ’90s parody as a “Mercedes that had an available to be purchased sign on it for very nearly two years” during a meeting with PopSugar in April 2023. There was a tiny white 280 SL Mercedes there for a while, Aniston continued. Perhaps more than two years were needed. “I can’t wait, someday, someday,” I kept saying to myself. So one day I bought it.
However, the actor’s ideal car had to live up to her standards. I took it several more times after that. It never drove again, she said. It stood there since it was a lemon. It was a brilliant 25-year-old mistake because I had no other real choice but to have it watched out because I had no idea how to fix it”.
Fans of Friends quickly expressed their disapproval of the actor’s salary after one TikTok user referred to the purchase as “such a Rachel Green thing to do.”. Meanwhile, another admirer remarked, “It should have been a warning because it had been there for quite a while”.
Aniston made up for it with a lucrative Friends contract, which paid her a whopping $1 million per episode for the show’s final two seasons, despite the fact that it wasn’t the best financial decision.
Even though Friends ended in 2004, Aniston and her former co-stars still make millions of dollars a year from the program. According to USA Today, the series brings in $1 billion a year for Warner Siblings thanks to partnership privileges. Each superstar receives only 2% of the total, which may not seem significant but adds up to $20 million per cast member per year.
