Seth Gold Net Worth $1.5 Million
Seth Gold was born to Les and Lilli Gold, the owners of American Jewelry and Loan. Seth spent his childhood in his hometown, where he finished elementary and high school. Right after matriculation, he moved to the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, from which he graduated with a business degree. He also attended at the Gemological Institute of America, and then returned to Detroit and started working in the family business, as the partner of his father. Seth ran the shop American Jewelry and Loan, which was located on Michigan Avenue in Detroit, while his older sister Ashley is the manager of the shop. His net worth was established, and thanks to his accomplishments in that field of business, in 2013 he was named the Pawnbroker of the Year by the National Pawnbrokers Association.
Seth’s family became well-known, and soon their pawn shop was selected for the TV reality documentary series named “Hardcore Pawn”, produced by Richard Dominick. With the series, his whole life changed and his net worth increased immensely from the contract he received to become a part of the show. “Hardcore Pawn” premiered on the 16th August 2010; having over two million viewers, it became TruTV’s most watched debut episode. Since then, the show’s popularity has never fallen, and it is still one of TruTV’s most viewed shows.
It now has nine seasons, but undoubtedly it will be continued as the store continues to operate with success. The first season of the show had only two episodes, but that was only to test the waters, to see if the show would stick with the public. Thanks to its successful debut, the second season had eight episodes, each one with over two million viewers. The next season of the show continued to spark the attention of the viewers, and had 13 episodes, showing the ups and downs of the store, which resulted in one of its employees quitting – this was Ashley, however, she was later brought back to the show. With every season, the number of episodes has increased, which has only added to Seth’s overall net worth. So far, the show has 162 episodes, and that number will only increase in the forthcoming years, which also means that Seth’s net worth will very likely become higher.
When it comes to his personal life, there is no any information in the media about Seth Gold, except the fact that he is married to his college sweetheart, and apparently have a son, but he refuses to put her into the public spotlight.
