He earned a high net worth

Considering his incredibly decorated resume, it should come as no surprise that Jerry Springer accumulated a massive net worth. Per Celebrity Net Worth, he was estimated to be worth around $60M at the time of his passing.

Most would agree that it was The Jerry Springer Show that really put the talk show host’s name on the map. Premiering in 1991, the show was originally a political talk show developed to resemble the Dr. Phil Show. It wasn’t until three years later that the show shifted to focus on scandalous and controversial tabloid topics with the goal of getting better ratings. This change in the show’s format proved successful and The Jerry Springer Show hit it big and became more successful than The Oprah Winfrey Show by 1998.

The final episode of his talk show aired in July 2018. Once the show ended, reruns aired on the CW network. And, the CW network held on to rights to the chance that any future new episodes of The Jerry Spring Show came into fruition.
