Ernie Boch, Jr. Net Worth $500 Million
To begin with, Boch was educated at Berklee College of Music. The company of local vehicle distribution, which now belongs to Ernie, had been launched by Andrew Boch, his grandfather, who bought the franchise of Nash Motors in 1945. Ernie Boch, Sr. also worked in the company and was a top ranked car dealer in the USA in the 1960s. Many well known commercials were shown on TV and Ernie Boch Sr.’s face was well known to audiences. After his death, Ernie Boch Jr. took his position inheriting all the company which increased the total size of his net worth.
Talking about the first car Ernie bought in 1974, it was a Volkswagen Beetle, purchased from the family’s company. Then he started working in the family business which at first added small sums to the wealth of Ernie Boch, Jr. As time passed, the sums as well as the responsibilities grew considerably.
However, in 2004, Ernie alongside the musicians Barry Goudreau (the guitarist), Sib Hashian (the drummer), Brian Maes (the vocalist and keyboard player), Tim Archibald (the bassist) and Michael Tunes Antunes (the saxophone player) formed a blues rock band called Ernie and the Automatics, which was signed to the Open E Records label. Their debut album called “Low Expectations” (2009) entered in 7th position on the Billboard Blues Albums chart, managing to stay in that position for six weeks. In 2011, the band split up, but Ernie showed up on various television shows including “The Phantom Gourmet” aired on WSBK-TV and “Rescue Me” on FX. As a popular celebrity, he is often invited into talk shows and other programs.
In 2015, Boch sold the majority shareholding of his dealership, but retains the Boch name and public face, plus Ferrari and Maserati dealerships.
Ernie Boch Jr. is somewhat of a controversial person too. He captured negative attention of social media when he expressed his opinion about the campaign of Donald Trump for the presidency of USA. He was also accused of gender discrimination while giving an interview to The Boston Globe and expressing his thoughts about women in the car selling business. In 2009, there was a minor controversy after one blogger made a joke about Ernie Boch, Jr (who has two children) not having named one of the children Ernie Boch III.
Finally, in the personal life of the businessman, he was married to Kristen Boch, and they have two children.

They were successful and took-on employees John Hegarty and Heremy Sinclair, but true success came to Charles later. In 1970 Charles Saatchi started his business together with brother Maurice: they established “Saatchi & Saatchi” agency which had become the largest advertising agency in the world by the mid-80’s with just a huge number of high-profile clients like UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and British Airways. However, Charles and Maurice left the agency and together founded another one called “M&C Saatchi”. They took many of their important clients with them, and one of these was British Airways. Nowadays, thanks to his prosperous business, Charles Saatchi has a net worth of $100 million dollars.
To the rest of the world Saatchi is also known as one of the most famous modern art collectors. He purchased his first art work in 1969 – by Sol LeWitt, a minimalist from New York. His passion for paintings only grew, and in 2009 he even published the book “My Name Is Charles Saatchi And I Am An Artoholic” wherein the author answered many questions and even gave some advice about collectibles. But the book didn’t become as popular as Saatchi expected, so the author asked his personal assistant to buy a huge number of books to help his work hit some positions in bestseller charts. Later in 2009 Saatchi appeared on the BBC program “School of Saatchi” and gave many young artists a perfect opportunity to show their talent and showcase artworks: some artists even painted portraits of Saatchi himself. In July 2010 Charles Saatchi donated his Saatchi Gallery to the British public together with 200 works of art.
Saatchi’s personal life has never been very public, but he married his first wife in 1973. He had met Doris Lockhart Dibley in 1965 while working for “Benton & Bowes”. The couple lived together for the six years before marrying, but divorced in 1990. Saatchi’s second wife was Kay Hartenstein to whom he was married from 1990-2001, and they even had a daughter together. Then Saatchi married for the third time in 2003, to English journalist, food writer, gourmet and television personality Nigella Lawson, but after public disagreements, were divorced 2013.

Mikey Teutul Net Worth
Michael Joseph was born 26 November 1978, in Montgomery, New York State USA, and widely known as Mikey Teutul, is a reality television personality, the youngest son of Orange County Choppers founder Paul Teutul, Sr. Mikey began his working life at 14, in the family business.
So just how rich is Mikey Teutul, as of late 2017? Authoritative sources estimate that Mikey has a net worth of over $3 million dollars, largely earned by working at his father’s and older brother Paul Jr,’s company Orange County Choppers (OCC), and Orange County Iron Works, and through his TV appearances.
Mikey Teutul Net Worth $3 Million
Little is known of Mikey’s early life or education – it seems to have always revolved around the family business. Helping out his family in his teens, theoretically he worked as Assistant General Manager. but his main duties were to answer ‘phones, and clear-up and take out the trash. He was on rare occasions given the chance to build bikes, until he was competent to build his own. He also attended events for promoting OCC.
In 2002, the family was invited to take part in a reality show, Discovery Channel’s “American Chopper”, and subsequently “American Chopper: Senior vs. Junior”, in the course of which the youngest son was thrown out of the business – the middle son is Daniel, and younger sister Cristin. The reason for Mikey’s exclusion was that Mikey tried to be a mediator between his father and his brother, but his father seemed to be offended that his younger son did not take his side, and so threw him out of the business. During the filming of the show, Mikey was somethoing of a comedy relief to his father’s workers, and that comedy streak helped gain him popularity in TV shows. Mikey then joined his brother’s post-OCC venture, -Paul Jr Designs – along with most of their father’s employees; obviously the work atmosphere with Paul Teutul, Sr. was not a particularly happy one. Mikey’s eldest brother Paul Jr. was the former chief fabricator of OCC.
So actually the main source of Mikey Teutul’s wealth is not his father’s business, but the shows he eventually took part in. These have included ‘The Late Show with David Letterman”, “Late Night with Conan O’Brien”, and also “The Tonight Show” with Jay Leno. The shows became very popular and Mikey’s appearances earned him a significant amount of money. To say the least, the family drama did not go without consequences – according to rumours, Mikey Teutul was suffering from an addiction problem, and consequently admitted himself to rehab, and managed to overcome the bad habits which were apparently hindering his progress in life, obviously including business.
In his life away from the businesses already referred to and the limelight of TV, Michael loves to paint, and is apparently respected for his productions, as he opened “The Wolfgang Gallery” gallery in Montgomery, New York, where he has sold or auctioned his paintings, adding somewhat to is net worth, although rumours suggest that the gallery may now be closed. Most recently, Mikey is now trying to enter the market under the moniker LLC FarQueue Products with his line of gourmet pasta sauces. Good luck, Mikey!
In his less-than-private personal life, Mikey is apparently still single – there aren’t even any rumours of romantic liaisons.
