Recent Forbes Valuation Adds Ridiculous Sum to Jerry Jones’ $10.6 Billion Net Worth, Ranks Him Among the Richest People in the World

When it comes to the various NFL franchises, the rich always get richer. It is all about the sport’s popularity, which has helped boost notoriety. Moreover, because of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones has had major boom in financial terms. He now adds up a massive chunk of money into his net worth.

One of the most valuable and successful ventures is owning an NFL team. Despite the loss due to covid-19, each franchise’s valuation price rises steadily each year. The wealthy owners of these teams keep getting richer. Oil tycoon Jerry Jones recognized the opportunity and captured it with the Dallas Cowboys.

As of the most recent valuations, Jerry Jones is the 172nd richest man on earth. That doesn’t appear to be at the top of the list. But if we limit it to NFL franchise owners, the Cowboys’ general manager ranks among the top five in economic growth. His net worth history was $10.6 Billion but made a $9 Million jump. Now, Jones sits over a real-time net worth of $11.4 Billion.

Jerry Jones earned fame in his career in the sector of oil in the 1970s. One of his most valuable assets is the Dallas Cowboys. He took over in 1989 for $150 Million and made it one of the most famous franchises today. Moreover, Jones still holds control over a publicly listed Texas oil and gas company while he works as the President/GM of the NFL franchise. The Dallas Cowboys continue to be the most successful sports franchise in the world, with annual revenue of $6.5 billion.
