Robert Herjavec’s net worth & biggest ‘Shark Tank’ deals
Friendly shark Robert Herjavec truly is a self-made millionaire. Here's what he's worth 20 years after his television debut.
While he’s not the richest of NBC’s startup-funding school of sharks, Robert Herjavec’s notable net worth is all the more impressive when examined in light of his highly humble beginnings.
Best known as one of “Shark Tank’s” loveable but scrupulous venture capitalists, Herjavec’s television career actually began with the Show’s Canadian predecessor and counterpart, “Dragon’s Den,” on which he served as a panelist for the first six seasons.
Well before either of these programs was conceived, Herjavec was born in Yugoslavia in a farming community in 1962. He was only eight years old when his family emigrated to Canada with little in the way of assets or prospects.
Despite growing up far poorer than most of his peers and having to learn English on the fly, Herjavec managed to work his way through school, graduate from college, and eventually make it big in the business world, paving the way for his eventual career as one of television’s best-known small business investors.
