Jean Lignel’s net worth
Despite jean’s actual net worth not being publicly available, we can work out his finances pretty well. The former newspaper publisher has to be worth somewhere in the multi-millions through his work as a publisher and art collecting.
He also sold his stunning West Village Carriage House around five years ago, which according to 6sqft.com went for a whopping $14.5 million. Jean purchased this property in 1996 for $950,000, so he turned over a pretty hefty profit.
His career as a publisher will have earned him a lot of his fortune too and we can assume that as an art collector, he most likely dabbled in auctioning as well.
