Jay Leno – $13.5 Million, Rhode Island


Adding to his name is this Newport, Rhode Island; Jay purchased a whopping $13.5 million. The new house of the legendary host isn’t a new property as it previously remained under the ownership of Verner Zevola Reed Jr., Chase Manhattan Bank’s vice-president. The sprawling mansion features 12 bedrooms, 12.5 bathrooms, a walled garden, a tennis court, and a carriage house. Although he has an extensive vehicle collection, only six cars fit in the house’s garage.

Jay has attained household name status after becoming the successor of David Letterman. Leno continued hosting The Tonight Show from 1992 until he stepped down in 2009. Aside from dropping huge amounts of investment money on houses, he is also known for his car and motorcycle collection, which account for at least $100 million. Unfortunately, even though he is married to Mavis Leno, the couple didn’t have any children, so it’s uncertain who will inherit these wheels and his $450 million net worth.
