According to Forbes, the famed actor and comedian left behind an estate worth $100 million and a potential fortune in image licensing. Robin Williams kids are the beneficiaries of the estate. However, he signed a trust agreement that would limit his likeness, from making money after his death. Robin Williams net worth at death reduced to $50 million due to multiple divorces that cost him $30 million.

Endorsements
Robin's most successful endorsement is his video game marketing with his daughter Zelda. Robin Williams did ads for Nintendo's remake of the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D video game. Nintendo's video game was named after Zelda, and also made her appearance in the spots. This must have been having the best father-daughter moments. Zelda seemed to be a fun teen.
Robin's house
The comedian owned the Napa Valley estate which was dubbed "Villa of Smiles". The house was sold at a discounted price of $18.1 million, according to Forbes. The sale was quite low considering it had previously been listed at $35 million by Williams in 2013.

Robin's earnings from acting
During his acting career, Robin movies grossed over $6 billion in the box office. In 1992, Williams earned $75,000 for the voice of the Genie in "Aladdin". The film, later on, grossed $500 million worldwide box office.
He played a role in "Popeye" which saw him earn $500,000. This is not much compared to his highest paying movie "Bicentennial Man" that made him $20 million. Williams then joined the likes of Will Smith and Arnold Schwarzenegger who have earned good cash from acting.
Away from his acting success, his role in television also was a success. Williams signed a contract for "Mork and Mindy" playing the role of the alien. The deal saw him pocket $3 million. Besides, he earned an average of $32,600 per episode. His show "The Crazy Ones" earned him a gross of $165,000 per episode. Robin Williams children are proud and keep following the success of their father.
