Jay Farber's net worth is necessarily an estimate as his tax returns are not public. However, with a degree in business, we can assume that his net worth has not significantly decreased after his WSOP success.

His $5 million cash would have been around $3.5 million after tax. If invested to match inflation that amount would be worth around $4.5 million in 2023.

That is probably a sensible starting estimate for Jay Farber's net worth.
