Jim Jefferies Net Worth $1.5 Million
Jim Jefferies first achieved notoriety when during a performance at the Comedy Store in Manchester he was attacked on stage. Later, he focused on this attack by including a video recording of the attack with his appearance in a future show. This performance has been released on DVD “Contraband” (2008), but prior to this, he released the comedy special “Jim Jeffries: Hell Bound: Live at The Comedy Store London” (2008).
Jefferies has appeared at a number of various comedy festivals, among them the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the Montreal Comedy Festival (Just for Laughs), the South African Comedy Festival, Reading and Leeds Festivals and Glastonbury Festival. He has been a guest on panel shows such as “Never Mind the Buzzcocks”, “Have I Got News for You”, “The Heaven and Earth Show” and” 8 Out of 10 Cats”. In addition to these, he has made appearances on “The World Stands Up”, “Comedy Blue” and “Edinburgh and Beyond Comedy Central” as well as on radio at BBC “Radio 5 Live”. There is no doubt that all the above mentioned appearances have added sums to the total size of Jim Jefferies net worth.
Furthermore, Jefferies in co-operation with his colleague and friend Eddie Ifft ran the podcast entitled “Jim and Eddie Talkin’ Shit”; the recorded at home Podcast appeared twice a week, but in December 2012, Jefferies left the podcast because of work on the television series “Legit”, the series on FX premiere running to a second season to February 2014. He then played in the Australian low-budget film “Me and My Mates vs. the Zombie Apocalypse” along-side the Australian comedians Greg Fleet and Alex Williamson, and released in 2015. Additionally, he was a guest star in an episode of the television series “Bad Judge” (2014).
Finally, in the personal life of the comedian, together with his partner actress Kate Luyben he has a son. Jefferies lived for eight years in Kentish Town, but moved to Los Angeles, where he lives now. He is an atheist, and discussed this in its programs. He also advocates stricter gun control. Jim Jefferies is an avid fan of Fulham F.C., the football club in England, as well as the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team.

Quote

[Donald Trump] Here's where it's not fun. What he does is he preys on fear. As soon as he, at the beginning it was "Mexicans are coming over here and they're raping" and then there was a terrorist attack and he thought "Fuck it, I'll go after the Muslims! Ah, we should kill the families of Muslims!" Which, by the way, you're not allowed to do. "Ah," and then he starts saying, after the Paris attacks, "we should put every Muslim on a register, we shouldn't let any more refugees come in from Syria, and put the Muslims that live here on a register" That means is-is win! As soon as he says that is-is have fucking won. Because their plan to shoot people in Paris, that's not their end plan, they didn't kill 128 people and go "Well, that's that done!" you know? It's a recruitment tool! And it can only work if hate is bred. So what he does is say "Ah we're going to ban them, we're not going to let any more in and the ones here have to be on a register." Now, you're a 16 year old boy or girl that's a Muslim living in this country, you've lived your entire life in this country you've always considered yourself American and all of a sudden someone who could be your President says "You are not welcome here and you should be put on a register." Now that kid, how fucking quickly do you think that kid could be radicalized, now? Before he wasn't going to be radicalized at all! [cheering]

[Donald Trump] What happens is, he says really simple shit that means nothing. And then fucking dummies... if you've ever said this sentence "I like him because he's a straight talker!", then you're as dumb as shit. [cheering] Just because someone says something simple that you understand, does not mean they're a straight talker. You can say complex things and be telling the truth. He says "I'm going to make America great again" and they go "I got every word in that sentence!"... He's like a kid running for class president saying "There's going to be two lunches and a soda machine in every classroom! Nashville football rules!"
