At 74, Jay Leno planning for death, leaves chunk of cash to cars – ‘no one lives forever’

Jay Leno, the 74-year-old comedian and former “The Tonight Show” host, is preparing to retire from the spotlight. Known for his passion for cars, Leno is making end-of-life arrangements, including a significant donation to a car museum.

After his television career, Leno created the web series “Jay Leno’s Garage” (2015-2022), gaining over 3.7 million YouTube subscribers by sharing his love for cars. However, in late 2022, he faced health challenges, suffering severe burns from a garage fire and later a motorcycle accident, resulting in multiple injuries.

Despite these setbacks, Leno remains devoted to his wife, Mavis, who is now battling dementia. A Los Angeles judge granted Leno conservatorship over her inheritance due to her “declining health and diminished mental capacity.” Her neurologist notes she is gradually losing awareness, but Leno continues to care for her with “unwavering devotion.”

Leno is also preparing for his own passing, planning to leave his $52 million car collection to a museum through the JDM Foundation, his nonprofit. Additionally, $7 million will go to his nephew and Mavis’s brother.
