After multiple decades of entertaining audiences with unusual comedic acts, The Amazing Johnathan had amassed quite a sizeable empire. In fact, according to Celebrity Net Worth, the comedian was worth approximately $15 million at the time of his death. The large net worth is largely due to the fortune that he amassed during his heyday when The Amazing Johnathan was headlining shows in Las Vegas and releasing specials like "Wrong on Every Level" and "The Amazing Johnathan Live." The Guardian reports that, during the early 2000s, The Amazing Johnathan was making around $3 million per year.
However, in 2014, the comedian's hopes for a long life were dashed when he was told that he only had a year to live, due to a heart condition called cardiomyopathy. "The greatest time of my life was spent here," The Amazing Johnathan said during an ENTSpeaks event at Inspire Theater in Las Vegas, per the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "I made millions of dollars, I have two beautiful houses, and everything came crashing ... down. And I was told I have a year to live. It's not a joke."
Despite this shocking prediction handed down from his doctors, The Amazing Johnathan lived another eight years performing sporadically and even becoming the subject of two documentaries — "Always Amazing: The True Story of the Life, Death and Return of The Amazing Johnathan" and "The Amazing Johnathan Documentary."
