Roger Matthews grew up in Maine where he went to high school. He had his first tattoo at the age of 17, and currently has between 150 and 200 tattoos on his body. Matthews is working for Hazmat tankers as a union truck driver, and that job has helped him to increase his net worth significantly.
Of greater interest and significance is Roger’s personal life, as he is now married to his longtime girlfriend Jenni “JWOWW” Farley, who is a cast member of the TV show “Jersey Shore”, on which Roger really came to some prominence being introduced as her partner, and which ran from 2009-2012. They eventually married in October 2015, and have two children, a daughter Meilani Alexandra Mathews, born in July 2014, and a son Greyson Valor, born in May 2016. Although he dated Fairley long before “Jersey Shore” started airing, Matthews only came to national attention thanks to the reality show.
Roger proposed to Jenni very unexpectedly during a skydiving trip in September 2012, buying her a pink diamond ring and waiting for her on the ground when she made her jump. The two of them announced via Twitter on Christmas 2013 that they were expecting their first child, and later announced that they were expecting their second child during the wedding ceremony in October 2015, born in May 2016.
The pair had several problems in their marriage, with sex and Jenni’s popularity among them. Although Roger stated that he thinks that Jenni is faking and acting on camera, he did accept an invitation to appear in the reality show called “Marriage Bootcamp: Reality Stars”, but left soon after because felt that JWOWW was not sincere enough. Matthews is quite popular on social networks, and he is a regular on Twitter, usually tweeting humourous and controversial items which involve his wife, Jenni. They have bought a house in New Jersey and currently reside there.

They were successful and took-on employees John Hegarty and Heremy Sinclair, but true success came to Charles later. In 1970 Charles Saatchi started his business together with brother Maurice: they established “Saatchi & Saatchi” agency which had become the largest advertising agency in the world by the mid-80’s with just a huge number of high-profile clients like UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and British Airways. However, Charles and Maurice left the agency and together founded another one called “M&C Saatchi”. They took many of their important clients with them, and one of these was British Airways. Nowadays, thanks to his prosperous business, Charles Saatchi has a net worth of $100 million dollars.
To the rest of the world Saatchi is also known as one of the most famous modern art collectors. He purchased his first art work in 1969 – by Sol LeWitt, a minimalist from New York. His passion for paintings only grew, and in 2009 he even published the book “My Name Is Charles Saatchi And I Am An Artoholic” wherein the author answered many questions and even gave some advice about collectibles. But the book didn’t become as popular as Saatchi expected, so the author asked his personal assistant to buy a huge number of books to help his work hit some positions in bestseller charts. Later in 2009 Saatchi appeared on the BBC program “School of Saatchi” and gave many young artists a perfect opportunity to show their talent and showcase artworks: some artists even painted portraits of Saatchi himself. In July 2010 Charles Saatchi donated his Saatchi Gallery to the British public together with 200 works of art.

Then Saatchi married for the third time in 2003, to English journalist, food writer, gourmet and television personality Nigella Lawson, but after public disagreements, were divorced 2013.

Alexis Ohanian Net Worth
Alexis Ohanian was born on 24 April 1983 in New York City USA, of Armenian and German heritage. He is perhaps best known as a co-founder of the social news and networking website Reddit. He has also helped in launching the online travel company Hipmunk and created Breadpig, a company which sells “geeky” merchandise and gives a lot of its profit to charities.
So how rich is Alexis Ohanian? Sources estimate his current net worth to be $4 million. Most of his wealth has been accumulated by working on Reddit and Breadpig.
Alexis Ohanian Net Worth $4 Million
Alex Ohanian studied at the University of Virginia and after graduating in 2005 he, together with Aaron Swartz and Steve Huffman created Reddit. The company was bought by Conde Nast Publications, but Ohanian still had great influence as one of the people in Reddit’s Board of Directors. Of course, Alexis’ net worth rose significantly.
Alexis created another company, with the strange name Breadpig in 2007. This company mostly concentrates on selling “geeky” merchandise and has an unusual approach to business, claiming to be an “uncorporation”, which means that they try to use the earned money to support charities and other projects. Alexis decided to leave the Reddit’s team in 2009. A year later Ohanian became an advisor to the Hipmunk website and helped to launch it.
Apart from being known as a businessman leading great internet websites which have built most of his net worth, Ohanian is also known as a social activist. Between 2010 and 2012, the Internet users were threatened by the SOPA (Stop Internet Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect IP Act). Ohanian was an outspoken activist against these acts and was one of the key people who helped to vote down these bills. After these events, Ohanian was chosen as the first on The Daily Dot’s list of “Most influential activists of 2012”. While these social acts did not necessarily help to directly raise his net worth, they certainly helped to raise Ohanian’s popularity and earned him a lot of fans on the Internet.
In 2013, Ohanian published his first book, entitled “Without Their Permission: How the 21st Century Will Be Made, Not Managed” which made it to #5 on the Hardcover Business best sellers list in the Wall Street Journal. In the same year, Ohanian started his own web series, called “Small Empires with Alexis Ohanian”.
Ohanian has also been a part of two radio podcast shows: NYRD Radio in 2014 and Upvoted which started in 2015, and is strongly related to Reddit as it examines some of the stories found on that website. All of these endeavors have helped to increase Ohanian’s net worth.
In his personal life, Alexis Ohanian is not married yet. During the time-off from his businesses and projects, Alexis speaks at lectures and conferences in various universities, also on some of the most influential companies such as Google, Kraft, Johnson & Johnson and others.
