So far, “Nickelback” has released eight studio albums, the most recent of which entitled “No Fixed Address” came out in 2014. For their contributions to music, the group has been rewarded with 12 Juno Awards, seven MuchMusic Video Awards, six Billboard Music Awards, and two American Music Awards.
A well-known singer and songwriter, how rich is Chad Kroeger? According to sources, Chad Kroeger’s net worth is estimated to be $60 million, most of which he has accumulated due to his involvement with “Nickelback”.
Chad Kroeger was born in 1974 in Alberta, Canada, where he spent most of his childhood. As a teenager, Kroeger had been interested in music, as a result of which he started playing guitar when he was 13 years old.

Kroeger then collaborated with Timbaland on “Tomorrow In the Bottle”, and a single released by “My Darkest Days” called “Porn Star Dancing”. More recently, in 2012 Kroeger began working on Avril Lavigne’s self-titled studio album, which was released in 2013 to generally favorable critical reviews, as well as commercial success both in the United States and abroad.

Chad Kroeger Quotes
- If my music is fucking up your life, change the station, dude. At the end of the day, I’m just some guy who sings in a rock-and-roll band. I’m not Hitler.
- I will never put another human being in front of my band. Ever. Do you have any idea how hard it is to tell a woman you love that if it ever came down to her or the band, she’d be packing her suitcase? I mean, you never want to explain it quite like that.
- We are four lucky bastards — not a day goes by that I don’t wake up and think, ‘I’m thankful to be able to play music for a living. And to be heard.’
- We thought about when we were selling 5,000 copies of our record a week last year, when all we wanted to do was start selling 150,000 records a week, right. And now that we’re doing it, we don’t even think about it, all we ever think about is time off! I think we’d almost give up one week’s sales for one week off. Give up 100,000 records just to go to Hawaii.
