Last updated: November 8, 2026
Bug Hall net worth is listed at $50 thousand by Celebrity Net Worth, on a page it updated on November 7, 2026. That is an estimate with no breakdown, and it is far below what many people assume for a child actor who starred in a 1990s film.
The low number is not simply a sign of lost money. Hall has said publicly that he gave away his savings and chose to live with as little income as possible. This article explains what is documented, what is only his own account, and why a single net worth number says little about his situation. Every figure names its source.

Bug Hall Net Worth: Is There an Official Figure?
No. Hall is not a public company and has not published financial statements. The only specific figure we could trace to a named source is Celebrity Net Worth’s $50 thousand. The site says its estimates come from public sources and sometimes private input from the person or representatives, and that they are only estimates.
That page shows no earnings figures for any of his roles. It lists credits such as The Little Rascals, Get a Clue and This Is the Year, but it does not say what he was paid for any of them.
Other pages in search results carry Bug Hall net worth articles labeled 2020, 2024, 2025 or 2026. We could not confirm any method behind them, so we do not use their figures.
Which Bug Hall Is This?
This article is about Bug Hall, the actor who played Alfalfa in the 1994 film The Little Rascals. Some Spanish-language outlets use “Brandon Bug Hall” or call the character by the Spanish title Pequeños Traviesos. The sources describe the same person.
Why His Net Worth Is Hard to Estimate

Income, savings and net worth are different things. A person can have earned a lot and still have little left, and a person can have little income and still own property.
- Income is money coming in over a period.
- Savings are money set aside. Hall says he donated his.
- Net worth is what he owns minus what he owes.
Several things make his number uncertain:
- No source gives what he earned as a child or adult actor.
- He says he donated his savings, but the amount and recipients are not public. AOL describes the donation as “reportedly,” without detail.
- The value, ownership and financing of the Arkansas land have not been publicly established, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
- Most of what we know about his finances comes from his own statements.
Bug Hall’s Money Figures on Record
| Source | Date | Figure or Claim | What It Means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Celebrity Net Worth | Updated Nov 7, 2026 | $50 thousand net worth | Estimate with no breakdown |
| Bug Hall, via AOL citing the Daily Mail | January 28 to 29, 2026 | Family bills are gas for the generator and car, plus $100 for two cellphones | His own statement. Not verified |
| Bug Hall, via AOL | January 2026 | Reportedly donated his child-star earnings | No amount given |
| Bug Hall, via AOL | January 2026 | He would “take some work or do an odd job for cash” if a financial need came up | His stated plan |
| Celebrity Net Worth | September 2026 | GoFundMe goal of $10,000 | Campaign goal, not money raised |
| Celebrity Net Worth | November 2026 | GoFundMe started at $2,000 and “quickly exceeded” that goal | Reported by that site. We could not open the campaign |
| Celebrity Net Worth | 2026 | A failed vehicle transmission wiped out his farm-work savings | Account tied to the fundraiser. Not independently verified |
Nearly every line in this table is a statement by Hall or a report of one. That is the main limit on any net worth figure for him.
Career: What the Record Shows
Child acting
Hall played Alfalfa in The Little Rascals in 1994. Soap Central lists other credits including The Big Green, Get a Clue and Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves. Celebrity Net Worth lists Get a Clue as 2002.
Writing and producing
Celebrity Net Worth says Hall co-wrote This Is the Year. Soap Central calls it his last official project, from 2020. Hall told the Daily Mail, as reported by AOL, “I loved making movies. I loved writing, producing, and acting.”
Why earnings are unknown
We found no source with salaries, residuals or box-office participation for Hall. Without a contract or a statement from him, any figure for his past earnings would be a guess.
Leaving Hollywood: His Own Account

In a January 28, 2026 interview with the Daily Mail, covered by AOL and Soap Central, Hall described a major change. All details below are his statements, and they are not independently verified.
- The goal: in his words, “maintain a life as free of any need for an income as possible.”
- The reason: he said he did not want a job that was “basically meaningless, making widgets to entertain people or distract people.”
- The label: he calls himself a “radical Catholic extremist” and says he took a “vow of poverty.” Those are his own words.
- The sacrifice: “It really wasn’t all that great of a sacrifice compared to what our Lord had planned to give me in return.”
AOL says the family lives in a campervan with a well and generator on an 80-acre plot, and that Hall planned to build a house within six months. It credits that detail to the Daily Mail, and it does not independently confirm it.
Where the Family Lives
Sources disagree on one detail. AOL puts the property near Mountain Home, Arkansas. Celebrity Net Worth and Soap Central say Mountain View, Arkansas. Both agree it is 80 acres in Arkansas.
Celebrity Net Worth says the family lived in a camper on the land and previously lived in Texas, Michigan and Ohio. It also says the land’s value, ownership structure and financing have not been publicly established. AOL says Hall’s extended family also moved to Arkansas and bought plots.
Family size also varies by report. AOL says Hall moved his wife and five children. Celebrity Net Worth says four daughters and a son, and that a sixth child was expected in 2026.
A Court Matter in the News
TMZ reported on April 13, 2026 that Hall was arrested in Ohio on a failure-to-appear charge. According to documents TMZ says it obtained, the charge related to a court date on December 31, 2024, and an earlier October 29, 2024 traffic citation for lacking liability insurance.
TMZ cited no police or court statement, included no comment from Hall, and did not report an outcome. We found no further reporting we could verify. It is a reported charge, not a finding, and it has no confirmed link to his net worth.
What a Low Net Worth Number Does and Does Not Mean
A small net worth figure is easy to misread. It can mean someone lost money, or it can mean someone chose to hold very little. The sources do not let us tell which applies, and they may be a mix of both.
- It does not prove what he earned. A low balance today says nothing about past pay, which no source gives.
- It does not value the land. Celebrity Net Worth says the Arkansas property’s value and financing are not public, so we cannot say whether it is counted.
- It does not describe his plans. Hall has said he would take odd jobs if a need arose, and net worth is a snapshot, not a forecast.
- It does not show donations. If he gave money away, a net worth page will not show where it went.
That is why we treat the $50 thousand figure as one outside estimate, not as a verdict on his life.

Why Websites Give Different Numbers

Net worth pages for a former child star tend to go wrong in a few ways:
- Assumed fame equals wealth: a famous film is read as a large payout.
- No method shown: the figure has no source, date or calculation.
- Old numbers, new year: a 2020 figure is posted under a 2026 headline.
- Ignoring his own statements: pages that predate his 2026 interview do not account for his giving away savings.
- Copied text: many pages repeat one another with small changes.
What We Still Do Not Know
- His actual net worth.
- What he earned from acting, writing and producing.
- How much he donated, and to whom.
- The value of the Arkansas land and whether it has any debt.
- How much his fundraisers raised, and what the money is for.
- How his court matter ended.
Anyone who answers these with certainty is guessing.
