Such an influential and successful entrepreneur is expected to have a substantial net worth of over $1 billion. But since the entrepreneur has yet to declare his assets and value, it is still just an estimation. 

How Did Wes Hall Make His Money?

Wes Hall has not inherited any of the money, and all his net worth is from his hard work. The Jamaican-born businessman came from a humble beginning and became one of the wealthiest Canadian entrepreneurs. 

The story behind how he made his money is influential for many aspiring businessmen. He has a collection of exclusive cars, lives in a lavish brick-walled mansion in the exclusive Rosedale neighborhood in Toronto, and wears expensive tailor-made designer clothes. But he grew up in a tin shack in Jamaica. 

According to the Financial Post, his mother was abusive, so he lived with his kind and loving grandmother in her tin shack. By the age of 13, he was mostly on his own. He used to do odd jobs, hustling for dimes and nickels.

Wes Hall, 53, was born in Jamaica on May 8, 1969. He left the country and moved to Toronto on September 27, 1985. He studied at Lester B Pearson Collegiate Institute. He hustled as a student and worked on a paper route, cleaned offices at night, worked at a chicken factory, and got married by 21 with two kids.

To feed the family, he worked as a security guard, mailroom clerk, crummy retail jobs, and at restaurants. In 1994, he graduated with a law clerk certificate from George Brown College and passed the interview for a corporate job at Global Television. He then met corporate director Glenn O’Farrell, who became his mentor and friend. Within a few years, he founded his own company Kingsdale Advisory.

He is also a player in the Canadian stock market and has a huge portfolio. His revenues from other businesses and investments made him rich today.
