True, but why was Jay hated so much for the whole Conan feud thingy 10 years ago. It seems nobody liked him back then and now everyone loves him again?
@@costco_pizza: Jay was NEVER "hated" - that's propaganda that was spewed against him - besides which, he's been gone from his talk show for years - so what's to talk about! He already discusses the situation surrounding his departure, in another video (so t's NOT a 'hidden' subject!) - look it up!
Jay is a blue collar guy that made it big and didnt change. He took a 15 million dollar yearly pay cut to keep the staff on the tonight show. He's a true class act, a real man.
@@stevep4236 This is the one I am referring to, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Tonight_Show_conflict it is when NBC favored Jay over Conan for the timeslot in the evening.

Of course Jay stepped down from his show shortly after to retire and do his RUclips channel.
@@michaelcharach Why ? Cause he own hundreds of vintage expensive cars. That doesn't mean he drives more or uses a lot more gasoline than the average joe that just owns a Toyota. It's not like he employs an army of drivers to drive his cars for him all the time..He's just one man.
Jay is the man, he deserves everything he has and more, been with Mavis since 1976, always sez, his friends have had 3 wives, multiple girls, he’s kept 1 wife, 200 cars, it works

@@costco_pizza I never liked Conan, not because of Jay, never watched his show, never saw him in Jays or Letterman’s league, and again if he was, when Jay left, ratings wouldn’t have died, now as a man, your make multi millions of dollars a year, NBC tells you your contact is up, your out, you leave quietly, next guy fails, now they offer you more money, do you say no?

@@costco_pizza You have to understand the context: "Leno, the host of The Tonight Show since 1992, and O'Brien, host of Late Night since 1993, were strong ratings leaders for NBC for much of the decade.

One of the most approachable men and hasn't forgotten his roots, I've met Jay a couple of times at car shows and he is a humble person and will spend time with you if he isn't busy but even then he makes you feel special, Another fact is Jay Leno lives a modest lifestyle even though he is wealthy and has a extravagant car collection and beautiful homes, he still hasn't spent a dime of his money he received from the Tonight Show to this day. Man is a smart businessmen and a national treasure to the car community and to the United States.
@A H not all. If it's true love. Lots of poor people do the same. I came from nothing when I married. In time moved in a 10,000 Sq ft home....then she started having affairs while in the middle of adopting a baby. Go figure. It's luck of the draw
He is a lot of fun to hang around. Been to many car shows where attends and he is hilarious but very friendly. One of those guys who is not afraid to let you touch his car and sit inside it and get a feel.
He has said that he and his wife drove by the house, and admired it. He went and asked the owner if he was interested in selling. I guess Jay must have made him an offer he couldn't refuse.
Drove by back in July when my wife and I visited R.I. To celebrate our 21 year wedding anniversary. That’s the best I can do, can’t promise a castle like Jay did to his wife, just drive by them, 😬
I've always loved Jay. I hate he got a bad wrap for the Conan thing but that's not his fault. Tbh Jay Leno is just more likeable and funnier to Conans creepiness.
Jay is one of my favorite talents out there. Hes such a kind soul and I share a love for cars just like him. I’d love to meet him and get a look at his cars.
Watch Jay’s appearance on the Adam Carolla show, RUclips Nov 2021. Responding to questions he discusses his spending philosophy that hasn’t changed since his early days. Took a pay cut, acknowledging he was still being paid millions, to spare lay offs of crew on the Tonight Show. Said he still has his Tonight Show income still in the bank. Haha Guess he’s saving for.a rainy day.
A modest guy for billionaire. Share his knowledge and passion for comedy and cars. Forget the Conan nonsense - that was business. He seems like a nice guy who looks after himself and his family as we all do
After pilling up those many collectible cars over the years, he had to cave in to the "one who shall be obeyed " and buy her a getaway home. Shrewd move. Most of those cliff mansions turned into museums on the account of unpaid back taxes. He now owns only one of the remaining few. As for being a one woman's man, with all that money , well , devoting time for his cars replaces the mistress figure. He is a nice fella , and above all a shrewd one.
very simple folk. Very nice country manor that has been designed by an Englisman. Ideal location to organize a very costly car auction. A gigantic cobble stone rosette ....
Out of all the comedians that I can think of... Jay seems to be the one with the least amount of baggage.. whether it be drugs ex-wives, car crashes, bankruptcies, arrests, assaults he doesn't have any of that. And he's done the people that have worked over him pretty solid over the years with pay and even taking a pay cut to make sure that his crew on The Tonight Show had a few more years of work... not a lot of comedians would do that
I wonder if he cracked into the Tonight Show earnings. Maybe not. He was on Adam Carolla podcast in November and said it was all still in the bank. Income x22 years, untouched. He lives off stand up comedy earnings. He has no kids. Wonder who they're leaving it all to?
Couldn't possibly happen to a greater guy. Well deserved...hope both he & his wife make many happy memories here!!

What an incredibly modest guy Jay Leno is. He deserves everything he has worked for - car collection and houses.

Got to love Jay saying he bought this for his wife! I suppose he would get in trouble if he said the favorite part of the mansion was the garage LOL

What a spectacular home and property!
🕌🏞👍
I would like to ask Jay if he would sell that home to me .....if he is willing to hold a thousand year mortgage @ $500 per month ?
Jay is a rare talent on that he is super smart with zero fear. That is a blend for success in all walks of life. He happens to be a comedian.
Good on you jay, congrats on your purchase

Gorgeous reporter and she did a great job running Jay Leno, who is of course a major TV pro.
I'd take the reporter over the house,anyday,and that's a nice house.
you speak the truth Kemosabe
That coat makes her look like a Jersey girl though
Stop being a simp. It’s embarrassing.
You could get plenty nice girls with that house.
Jay wasn't in a Jean shirt!
Hey he's on vacation. Such a great guy to give his time like this.
Guarantee his wife made him bring an interview outfit. Someday you'll learn the wife ways.
Met the man near his new home. He is kind and generous with his time, especially talking about his favorite subject.
Great interview Alexis .. Jay the home is New England stunning.. Happy Christmas 🎄🎅🏻☃️🙏
Gorgeous Home, Congrats to him!
What a nice and humble man.
I love the way she holds that mic 🎤
That's a great mic holder .
That’s not Jay that’s the handyman!
You can tell from the old, old, vehicles he drives!
Have seen the home from the road, beautiful place, hey jay I was the guy doing push ups on the outcrop of rocks down the street,
Jay is one of my favorite talents out there. Hes such a kind soul and I share a love for cars just like him. I’d love to meet him and get a look at his cars.
Leno is a class act!
Such sincerity from Jay always
Love Jay Leno !
I was born and raised in Rhode Island maybe someday I’ll move back to Newport and buy myself a castle also.
Wow that place is amazing!
A multimillionaire everyman. Who doesn't like Jay Leno. Always a fan of Jay's.
Man has class
True legend
Jay is the best!
Jay Leno's Garage brought me here.
I think I'd better go back to Jay Leno's Garage pronto, before I get an opinion about Jay!!!!!

Just a beautiful home
Newport: my original home town..... born there in the Summer of '47.
Very well done. Thank you and merry Christmas Alexis Heroic.
jay couldn't say it on TV, but we all know the favorite part of the house the garage ,and how many more car he can fit there 😁
Clash of generations. Advantage Leno.
try cleaning your lens a little bit more frequently. you never know when you'll be pointing it into the sun (again).
I would have bet Jay's favorite part of the house was the garage.
Damn I hated his night show. But his car show is to die for thanks Jay.
He's Finally wearing a different shirt. Thx j
I didn't know he had a place in Rhode Island! I used to go there in the 80s as a kid in the summertime when Rocky Point Amusement Park was still open.
Keep the house, ill take the girl 👍
A modest guy for billionaire. Share his knowledge and passion for comedy and cars. Forget the Conan nonsense - that was business. He seems like a nice guy who looks after himself and his family as we all do
FYI, Jay is worth ‘only’ $450,000,000.
Never touched his $15million+a year Tonight Show checks... sent them all into investments.
Living off the interest and gig money.
Smart business man like to hear that story.
Thought for sure he was going to say the best part of the home was the......................garage.
Jay is a great guy and an even better husband!
What a home!
Go find the story of how he found and bought the house. Also, he paid considerably less than what the last McLaren F1 sold for.
Pretty cool! Cheers from the Finger Lakes!
the roof on this house is worth over 100 ordinary houses or over 1,400 double wide roofs
Letterman would never show of his house
Jay needs a Rhode Island accent . Hang around Haven brothers dinner by BUDDIES PLACE . JAY Thanks for all the great car events here .
Super hottie! 🔥

Got to be honest, I'm very envious
This looks like the Family Guy mansion in their murder mystery special. Which is also in RI.
Hi, Jay l think you have exilent taste,In House's and Grantham,In England 👌
How do you not ask to see the garage?
His garage is in Burbank Airport.
So unbelievable.
It all worket out OK, obviously. JL is the most humble superstar of all times.
Jay’s a good guy. Sure loves the camera🤣
Is there a Toronado there yet?
Nobody Is going to talk about how hot this reporter Is?
and I was just watching the Craig Ferguson show where he kidded Leno about not having his own castle
Nooooooo the garage🤗🤭
Would have been funnier if he said "it's always been a lifelong dream of mine to go viral on tiktok"
3 or 4 times a year! Nice! home!
Something tells me Jay called the reporter first
His favourite part of the house is the driveway ...
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Look at that Castle! Who is this guy? The King of Newport?! 🤓
There are a lot of homes like that in Newport
Where did it all go wrong Jay? (with apologies to George Best's favourite story)
Some tour...
The house is for the wife . The garage is for Jay .
