George Jones Net Worth

George Jones, born on September 12, 1932 in Saratoga, Texas, was an American musician who had a net worth of $35 million at the time of his death in 2013. He began playing guitar at age nine and left home at 16 to pursue a full-time career in music. After serving in the United States Marine Corp for one year, his music career took off and he went on to record over 150 hit songs, earning him the title of the greatest country singer ever by many country artists.

Despite his success, Jones struggled with alcoholism and cocaine addiction and developed a reputation for not showing up to gigs during the height of his popularity. It was his fourth wife, Nancy Sepulvado, who helped him get back on track. Even in his later years, Jones continued to release hit songs and perform at least 60 concerts a year.

George Jones passed away on April 26, 2013 in Nashville at the age of 81.
