Jake Paul's Net Worth 2024, Salary, Girlfriend, and More

 Who is Jake Paul?

No other personality in recent times has had the kind of impact on boxing as the twenty-seven-year-old Jake Paul.

But much before he embarked on a new career, Paul had a hugely successful career as a YouTube Content Creator.

Starting in 2013, the Cleveland, Ohio-born boasted a channel with over twenty million subscribers.

Jake Paul's early life

Born on January 17, 1997, in Cleveland, Ohio, to Greg Paul and Pam Stepnick, Jake Joseph Paul went to Westlake High School in his hometown.

Reportedly football and wrestling were the sports that grabbed his attention initially. After completing his schooling, Paul went to Cleveland State University to pursue higher studies.

He has an elder brother Logan Paul who was into YouTube content creation and later took a leap into boxing and finally into the pro wrestling franchise WWE, where he is a big star now.

Jake Paul's girlfriend

Jake Paul is currently going serious with his Dutch girlfriend, Jutta Leerdam. A speed skating champion, she and Paul reportedly met on Instagram. They made their relationship official in April last year.

Before he met Leerdam,' The Problem Child' was dating Instagram model and social media influencer Julia Rose. Their relationship began in 2020 and ended in the latter part of 2022.

But there were other girlfriends before Rose as well. He used to see another internet personality Tana Mongeau till 2019. Then there was Erika Costell.

During 2016 and 2017, Jake Paul dated model and actress Alissa Violet.

Jake Paul's Net Worth 2024

According to celebritynetworth.com, Jake Paul's net worth is nearly $80 million. They also added that his annual income before tax deduction hovers between $20 million and $50 million, generated through boxing fights, YouTube videos, endorsements, and merchandise.

It was in 2021 that Jake Paul joined his advisor Nakisa Bidarian to lay the foundations of his promotional venture, Most Valuable Promotions.

The promotion was behind Paul's two matches with former UFC champion Tyron Woodley in 2021. Even the bout with Anderson Silva in October last year took place under MVP.

But the venture hit gold with the boxing match between then undisputed champion Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, promoted by MVP, on April 30, 2022.

The first-ever bout for women in New York's Madison Square Garden was described as the biggest women's fight of all time.

Apart from the nearly 20k crowd who thronged the stadium, people across 170+ markets, or almost 1.5 million audiences, according to DAZN, were able to watch the match. Amanda Serrano reportedly took home $1 million.

Jake Paul signed up for a multi-year contract with the Professional Fighters League early in January of 2023. The deal requires him to participate in the franchise's mixed martial arts promotional activities.

Thus his designation would be that of head of fighter advocacy. Regarding fights, he would take part in PFL's PPV Super Fight Division and take home roughly fifty percent of the revenue generated by pay-per-view sales.

Besides the above, Jake Paul also has a stake in Betr, a sports company that claims to have developed the world's first direct-to-consumer micro-betting app. Available through Apple and Google Play stores, the app, introduced in 2022, is reportedly an outcome of a collaboration between Paul and Joey Levy. According to TMZ Sports, the company is worth around $300 Million. Last year, the Ohio native's brainchild raised $35 Million in new funding from Fuel Venture Capital and Roger Ehrenberg of IA Sports Ventures and Eberg Capital. Paul even has the company's logo tattooed on his leg, marking his commitment to the brand.

Aside from the boxing matches and the various business ventures, endorsements form a considerable part of Jake Paul's overall earnings.

'The Problem Child' is also reported to have lucrative deals inked with UK-based men's apparel brand boohooMAN, American sports betting firm DraftKings, and New York-based fashion travel accessories maker SPRAYGROUND, among others.

It should be noted that Paul's clothing line, RNBO Clothing, stands for Rise N Be Original.

Jake Paul car collection

Ferrari 296 GTB

Paul managed to get his hands on this sleek sports car last year. However, you would have thought that Jake Paul would handle the £330,000 worth sports car with care. Well, think again! Paul managed to break the car after only one day. As he took the beautiful yellow sports car for a ride, he decided to do a 0-60 drags race and broke the new tires on the highway. And that wasn't all as every single warning light on his car's dashboard started flashing as he did some donuts in a parking lot. Supposedly, Paul had to head back to the dealership with his car for repair work hours after buying it.

Ferrari SF-90

After the debacle with his first Ferrari, Paul decided to add another of these beauties to his car collection. Fortunately, he didn't do anything stupid with this one. The SF-90, worth around $423,000, was in the same yellow color as the 296 GTB. The sports car is equipped with three electric motors and a twin-turbocharged V8 engine rated at a power output of 780 PS.

TESLA MODEL X

Jake Paul bought the only electric car in his collection- the Tesla Model X in 2017. Worth approximately $80,000, it is nothing compared to the other cars on this list.
