Piers Morgan's net worth can be attributed to his hard work and dedication as a TV host, journalist and director.
Born Piers Stefan O'Meara, Piers Morgan's net worth first gained traction when he started working as a bottom-ladder writer for The Sun, Daily Mirror, News of the World and other British tabloids.
Piers Morgan's net worth got another jumpstart when he was forced to leave the Daily Mirror and ventured into the world of television. His first TV gig was presenting a three-part BBC TV documentary series called "The Importance of Being Famous."
On his way to A-list status, Piers Morgan's net worth increased even more when he appeared as a judge on "America's Got Talent" alongside David Hasselhoff and Brandy Norwood in 2006. He was sought by Simon Cowell as a replacement as Cowell also had to appear as a judge in American Idol.
Morgan's next projects include an appearance in "Comic Relief Does The Apprentice," "Britain's Got Talent," "You Can't Fire Me, I'm Famous," "The Dark Side of Fame with Piers Morgan," "Piers Morgan On..." and "Piers Morgan's Life Stories," all of which helped to increase Morgan's net worth.
Morgan's latest and highest-earning gig so far was his very own show in CNN titled "Piers Mogan Live." Morgan had replaced Larry King in CNN's evening line-up staring January 17, 2011.
At this point, Piers Morgan's net worth had gone up by millions as he was earning an estimated US$2 million a year however CNN recently announced that it's pulling the plug on the "Piers Morgan Live" show because of disappointing ratings.
So how much is this veteran TV journalist worth? CelebrityNetWorth says Piers Morgan's net worth is a cool US$20 million.
