Marcus Lemonis Net Worth
Everyone knows Marcus Lemonis from business TV show The Profit. But he’s also a successful entrepreneur in a real life. As of 2015, Lemonis’ total net worth is approximately $155 million. His main source of income is from his car businesses. He had some of the best teachers in this field. Curious who it was?
Although he was born in Beirut, Lebanon, Lemonis grew up in Miami, Florida since he was adopted by a wealthy Greek couple living the USA. His new grandfather was owner of a huge Chevrolet dealership and Lee Iacocca was close family friend. Iacocca mentored young Marcus at that was probably more important for his success than receiving a bachelor’s degree at Marquette University.
Besides his core business, Lemonis is an expert in helping troubled businesses of other people. When he chooses some business that needs makeover, he usually adds a necessary cash boost from his huge net worth but what’s more important also serves with his expertise. And of course he takes a partial ownership in that company for that. He saved many enterprises this way. In 2013, CNBC started reality TV show with him, doing exactly this. And besides being wealthy, Lemonis became also famous.
In 2013, Lemonis also bought another Lake Forest luxury home to his real estate portfolio. The house was built in 2006 and offers seven bedrooms and huge lot. Marcus paid almost five million for it. The house was sold by Carbonari family.
