Chumlee has been in trouble with the law lately, as he was charged with assaulting a woman. The assault charges ended up being dropped, but when the police conducted a routine search of his home, the authorities found large quantities of weapons and ammunition.
They also found several Ziploc bags and jars filled illegal substances that he had been selling.
Pawn Stars
Yes, the characters on the show do run a pawn shop, but that's probably as real as it gets. Rick Harrison never actually works behind the counter, and the interactions are all carefully curated.
It shouldn't even come as a surprise that all the items on the show are cleaned and vetted before being aired on the show.
Chumlee Drops the Bass
Before the show's airing, a man once walked into Gold & Silver wanting to pawn his stand up bass. He handed it to Chumlee who leaned it against a shelf nearby, moments later the bass fell and bike into dozens of pieces. Chumlee didn't think much of it and swept all the parts into a box.
So when the man came back, Chumlee gave over the box and as we would expect, the man was distraught. The bass was valued at $20,000.
Rick's Net Worth
We wouldn't have guessed it but it turns out that Rick Harrison is worth around $8 million. Most of his money was earned from his pawnshop, but he was also smart and invested some of his money in the stock market.
Of course, nowadays his primary source of income comes from the Pawn Stars merchandise sold at this store.
Chumlee net worth
After his appearance on the show, Chumlee quickly became a fan favorite because of his lovable personality. Chumlee is estimated to be worth $6 million, with all he has to his name being his mansion outside Las Vegas.
He must have made quite a profit for selling illegal substances before he was caught by the local authorities.
