How Much Money Do Nia and Danny Booko Make? They Break Down Their Finances
Danny and Nia Booko have found some creative ways to pay for their lives with three children.
Raising three kids under two may seem like a full-time job, but somehow Danny and Nia Booko make it look easy and still find time to add other work to their resumes.
The couple gave insight into the creative ways they make their finances work on the latest episode of The Valley.
How Danny and Nia Booko Make Their Money
While Danny, an actor and voice actor, is the “breadwinner” of the family, Nia has leveraged her former Miss USA past to bring in some extra cash.
“Since being Miss USA I’m now hired by brands to promote them and post on social media,” she explained.
When she isn’t nursing newborn twins Isabelle and Zariah, chasing her toddler son, Asher, around, or promoting the latest product on social media, Nia can also be found coaching other pageant hopefuls.

“What I say is we live off your salary and mine is for fun. For travel, for extra expenses,” Nia explained.
“No, 'cause I’m still paying for all that too, sweetie,” Danny teased.
All joking aside, Nia insisted that the couple approach their family finances as a unit and “pay for it together.”
“All of our money, all of our money goes into the same bank account so we are paying for it,” she clarified.
“This is true,” Danny agreed.
What has Danny Booko acted in?
It’s been nearly two decades since Danny got his big break in acting in 2005 when he was cast as “Kyle” on The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, according to his bio on IMDB.
“I’ve been a professional working actor for 18 years,” Danny explained in the first episode of The Valley. “Most people recognize me and know me from, you know, the iCarly, the Hannah Montana."
“More recently,” he added, "they know me for doing voiceover for things like The Walking Dead.”
Today, Danny spends most of his time doing voiceover work, whether it’s his recent work on the television series Obliterated or films like Ghosted, Shazam! Fury of the Gods, and Texas Chainsaw Massacre. He also supplements his income by working as a “looper” on films like Scream VI and Scream.
For those unfamiliar with the Hollywood term, a looper is a voice actor who helps flesh out a scene by providing background noise or extra voices, according to LAist, which profiled the occupation as one of its “odd jobs” in Hollywood.
What does Nia Sanchez Booko do for a job?
As for Nia, since taking home the title of MIss USA in 2014, the mom of three has continued to stay close to the pageant world and offers coaching and advice to a new generation of pageant contestants.
She also hosts her own podcast, aptly titled Hold My Crown.
“So much more than the crown and sash! Miss USA and 1st Runner Up Miss Universe, Nia Sanchez Booko is keeping it real each week as she digs into relationships, motherhood, beauty, self defense, confidence and travel,” a podcast description explains. “Along the way, she will be chatting to experts, queens, and a few you may recognize from TV to get curious about the joys and struggles that come with living your authentic life.”
Brittany Cartwright, her castmate on The Valley, even stopped by on a recent episode to chat about her relationship with estranged husband Jax Taylor.
This year, Danny and Nia have also both added a new line to their resumes as they delve into the world of reality television as castmates on the first season of The Valley.
The new Bravo series follows five couples — including Vanderpump Rules alums Brittany, Jax, and Kristen Doute — as they trade their wild younger days for a more family-focused life in the Los Angeles suburbs.
And it turns out, Nia and Danny’s young twin daughters are also following their famous parents into television. Nia shared on Instagram that her identical twin daughters split the role of “CeeCee” on the tv comedy Young Sheldon.
“We’ve had the most incredible time with the girls playing baby Ceecee on Young Sheldon,” she wrote along with an adorable video showing the babies' lives on the set. “The cast and crew feels like a little family. I’m so sad it’s over but so grateful that this was our/their first experience on a show!”
