Appraisals: Comedian Jay Leno | Celebrity Edition, Hour 1 | ANTIQUES ROADSHOW | PBS 

That's because he's had a LOT of past lives of penury. He will never be arrogant or self absorbed.

He likes to teach about the stuff which I appreciate.

@@jenniferlawrence9473 p

I have heard from several people who have met him that he is very down to earth. He deserves every penny he has because he earned them.

That's money! Wow.

I’ve read that he lives off his stand-up comedy money and hasn’t even touched any of his Tonight Show money

@@joemonstermaker4784 , his RU-vid earnings will probably make more than the Tonight Show, especially Jay Leno’s Garage.

@@joemonstermaker4784 Very doubtful with the extensive car collection of super expensive cars that he has, plus the warehouses for the cars, plus staff, plus the L.A. House.

Everything is worth something to someone. A bowl of soup is worth more than a painting . . . to a starving person.

I don't think Conan would agree.

@@skip686Or Letterman.

That's HIS problem

That peacock was probably no more than 100 yards off in the water.

Peacocks do what they want! Lol 🤣

I have a peacock story while I was staying on Heron Island on the Great Barrier Reef.

There is NO peacock references in the Bible. That is plain poppycock

@@apologiamixer or is that pure PEAcock? Lol

That's good to hear, cheers

​@@buckodonnghaile4309o One thing on my bucket list is to visit his garage. I have loved his taste in cars and motorcycles. His humor is pretty awesome too! I'm 75, so we are not too different in age. But the best thing is he just seems like the real deal!

@Digby Dooright lol 😂

@@user-pn5fk8db9q we all have chance and choices he made good ones he wasn’t born rich

I miss seeing him on tv. His sense of humor is the best.

@@sammyn549 he was always fair in politics too everyone got hit 😁

Wow!

Half Scottish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇺🇸 😁👍

I hear you

@@ohio he didn’t touch it, he drove it away 😂😂😂🤙🏻 now he makes another fortune doing his dream car shows. Hes the best

@@Shane-zx4ps me too half Italian too my Daddy was from Brooklyn! And we had a vintage British and Italian motorcycle shop my brother worked at Dudleys, Ghost snd Cycle city before our shop. He road raced a 750 Duc . Was good too. We still have bikes for sale, box stock. Mostly Italian left but some Indian parts and some really old English bikes a few whole, need restoration. One trophy restored 70’s . Hope Jay reads this! Spokey restored it. The rest of English bikes went back to the UK. They are supposed to come back for their 9th time for more . Getting a kick out of returning them to the UK. Would love to see Jay get some. My brother would be proud if he did.

@@kulturklinik8149 I’m of the Armstrong Clan

Mind sharing Or at least hinting who they were?

That's amazing. Lucky you, and probably lucky them for your gracing the halls with music. ♡

@@schmidtythekidd He invented something to do with air conditioning, I believe.

@@Chereese0808 Thank you. The place was amazing. I have some nice pics and memories from that day. One in particular of my wife and I in front of that infinity pool.

@@stephenrestaino Yes, he was the guy who invented the on/off switch

Jays got stains on his t-shirt, he probably was in the middle working on one of his cars. What a normal guy.

I did too. His delivery was just too funny.

And when he said after they leave, I am going to check to see if the silverware is still there...😅

"Just a classy guy ..." Carson: 😆 Letterman: 😂 Conan: 🤣🤣🤣

down to earth! for sure!

Jay Leno stayed off drugs, and was never in a scandal or the Tabloids. Jay wisely put every Tonight Show check into savings for a rainy day. Jay lived off his stand-up comedy routine all those years while the Tonight Show salary was invested wisely and grew substantially until Jay finally retired and started to spend his fortune on the things he liked. When you buy a Mansion on the East Coast it's less taxes and half the price of California. I do think that when Jay and Mavis pass the Mansion will be donated for Historical Preservation of the "gilded age" in America history.

my man really typed: "Jay is so humble" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh nononononono

The art and paintings are all more relatable it's nice

We would do it if we could.

@Art the Angel of JESUS bless you. You sound like someone who doesn't get any.

Imagine. Here I am single in an old studio apartment☹️

Didn't he got married to a guy a few years back?

I thought the house looked nice from the many backyard angles they kept showing, but when I saw the front, how it wraps circularly, I realized why they were immediately impressed by the house as they drove past it. It’s beautiful.

Well, if you have infinity money and about 10 good years left, it’s the least you could do.

Especially because she's a very unattractive woman

@@stanleymasterson1135 hardly, especially for someone who is 75 years old. Disrespectful comment!

Too bad she didn't want it

@@Otisbear480 what?

When Leno left, I left. Nothing on late is worth watching.

@@donfss5088 same.

When late night was great!!!

Didn't know that. I saw Jay for the 1st time on my very first date. He had bought tickets to a comedy cruise on Boston harbor. Great show, great memory!

Have you ever toured the Breakers?

@@c.r.f.4412 I could give the tours as we’ve been there many, many times through the years. Back in the early 70’s as newlyweds on a rainy day, we pulled up there in our little VW Bug and they had us park right at the front door. We could not tour the 2nd floor at the time because one of the Vanderbilt ladies in her 90’s still had her bedroom there!

I really like the mixture of decorations etc. It is a warm and inviting home not too ostentatious. I toured the breakers etc 40 years and they were all gold etc. Not warm like the Jay Lenos mansion. I 😍. ❤️

In the mid '70s we'd run barefoot on the lucious lawns of Ocean Drive at the first hint of spring. 50 years later I am more careful running the lawns lol. Put a trip to Newport in April or September on your bucket list.

I've wondered if living in his car had anything to do with his car collection

@@nancywelsh2837 I think that had more to do with being a mechanic and working at a garage.

looks like a castle to me

Just an ordinary guy living in his ordinary 100 million dollar mansion.

You can be wealthy and still have humanity and class as I believe Jay does.

I believe that's called having "F-you money."

His snap button denim shirt was in the wash that day.

Or for the IRS.

His 1934 Duesenberg Walker Coupe is worth 20 million dollars. It's worth more than that house and everything in it.

You miss the part where a cast iron statue was washed out to sea? You can keep that coastal living.

Until winter.....🥶

I'm a local thoroughly enjoying Jay's ownership of this mansion. He's done fundraisers for local folks in a tiny theater down the street. Stand up guy, pun intended.

I don't think he's actively collecting any trinkets. They just happened to be there. 😃😃

@@bobinpune I think he was coming out to an annual car show he likes to attend every summer and saw this house over the years and decided to ask if it was for sale, turns out it was. It's the kind of house that doesn't show up on Zillow, you have to inquire separately. In this case he literally knocked on the door, the homeowner was not there, but one of the staff answered and got in contact with the owner.

Agreed he’s full of it

I don't think you get that wealthy being a talk show host. I'm curious where he invested.

He’s main job was a talk show host and he’s obviously made investments

well possibly not if he got where he is by stabbing people in the back like conan

Respect for screwing Conan?

Maybe Jay donates a lot of time to charity, but otherwise I’m not so sure telling jokes for a living should bring you that much money. What a screwy world we live in. Also, I’m not buying his whole humble jeans and tee shirt act. The guy obviously loves his money.

Wish my knees would let me bike Ocean Drive again.

Like screwing over Conan?

@@xploration1437 Yes

13 million WOW that is a deal with all decor too

Its not a castle though. Its just a big house.

@@MsPinkwolf Yup. The Newport homes built in the Gilded Age were mostly fake French chateaux or fake Italian palazzi. This is a house built to take advantage of its spectacular location. A really big house, finished beautifully. But basically comfortable. The contents are fine, interesting art - not by the most famous artists. People could actually sit in those couches and chairs. They are not gilt encrusted European antiques.

Amen…I loved it at 19 million!

It's probably a million a year just to maintain and pay taxes on it.

It's not beachfront property really. Rugged surf steals the sand probably trucked in yearly to create a private beach. I imagine Leno wearing those jeans and tee humorously supervising beach creation.
