Jim Bob Duggar Net Worth Trends: Can He Afford Josh’s Hefty Bail?
What is Jim Bob Duggar’s net worth? People are curious about what the TLC star is worth as his son Josh Duggar was just granted bail in his child porn case.
What is Jim Bob Duggar’s net worth?
Celebrity Net Worth estimates that Jim Bob is worth $3.5 million. He’s earned this money in a variety of ways, including his family’s TLC shows, real estate, and other entrepreneurial ventures.
The Duggar family has had several shows on TLC, but they are best known for 19 Kids & Counting and Counting On. In the past, Jill and Derick Dillard have claimed that they weren’t fairly compensated for their time on the show and that Jim Bob receives all of the paychecks. They said that he pays each of the kids from the money he receives, but they didn’t get paid what they were supposed to. So, it’s possible that Jim Bob has a lot of money laying around from the show.
Also, Jim Bob and several other Duggars are in real estate. This brings in some good income for them, as they often flip houses and resell them. Some of the Duggar men have contracting experience, so they are able to renovate these homes so they can sell for even more.
The 55-year-old is also an author and has a background in politics.
Josh Duggar granted bail
As we reported on Wednesday, Josh was granted bail and will be released on Thursday. At this point, it’s unclear what the bail amount was. It’s safe to assume that it was a pretty hefty bail, and it’s also assumed that Jim Bob paid for it. While someone else could have covered the cost, it doesn’t seem like anyone else has that kind of money.
Josh’s trial will be in July, and he may end up paying fines and spending time in jail for these child porn charges.
It’s possible that Josh was just released on conditions. These are the strict rules he has to follow now that he’s out of jail. He may not have had bail, but it also could have been arranged offline after the Zoom hearing. Few details are public about the bail and what happened after the hearing.
