Hugh Hefner Net Worth is
$50 Million
Hugh Hefner Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Hugh Hefner net worth now amounts to $43 million. The very first issue of Playboy was print in 1953 and featured sexual images of the celebrity, sex symbol and pop culture star Marilyn Monroe. Since then Hugh’s business developed to the international media and lifestyle firm referred to as Playboy Entertainment. In 21th century Playboy is broadly regarded as among the hottest brands in entertainment business and its own symbol, a small bunny, is recognized all around the globe. For over six decades Hefner’s bizarre lifestyle and numerous actual and staged love affairs has kept him in the headlines.
Since an early childhood Hugh was an advanced thinker and illustrated outstanding wisdom. The rumor goes that from the time he began going to Steinmetz High School, Heffner’s IQ was 152. Despite his natural intellectual possibility, the lad proved to be a hesitant and unenthusiastic pupil. Instead, he chose to dedicate his time for side projects and various avocations. His fire and natural instinct for journalism, which later fostered Hugh Heffner net worth to tens of millions, unfolded especially early. While still at Steinmetz, the teen founded and ran a schools paper.
His first job, which he acquired in the early 1950s, was in an entry level and failed to make substantial contribution to Hugh Hefner net worth. But the years spent working for the Esquire magazine failed to visit waste. While doing his occupation only at that firm Heffner got priceless expertise and found an idea for his future private business. From the time of leaving his place in 1953, Hugh had a clear vision of the guy’s magazine that will have no strong competitors in the industry. There was just one issue: the youthful and ambitious would be businessman failed to get a starting capital. When the brand new magazine featuring Marilyn Monroe reached the shops, his attempts began paying off: Hugh Heffner net worth shot right to the sky.

| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | [on being dumped by his 25 year old bride-to-be]: This was going to be my wedding day, but life is full of surprises. After all is said and done, staying single is probably for the best. |
| 2 | [on feminists] They were wrong! The part of the women's movement that was anti-sexual was ill-conceived. The notion that women, in escaping from the bondage of over 2,000 years, should view Playboy - which helped set them free - as the enemy is an indication of real confusion. Historically it's understandable: we are a puritan people in America and women's suffrage was directly connected to the prohibitionists. |
| 3 | The major civilizing force in the world is not religion, it's sex. |
| 4 | [talking about the risk of putting a nude woman in a magazine] It was risky enough that I didn't put my name on the first issue. |
| 5 | Playboy was founded on the notion that nice girls like sex, too. |
| 6 | [asked if blondes have more fun] They do with me. |
| 7 | Playboy exploits sex the way Sports Illustrated exploits sports. |
| 8 | [on publishing Playboy magazine] If there was going to be a sexual revolution, I would be its pamphleteer. |
