Günther Jauch, a 3.5 million villa and his own restaurant in Potsdam
Colleague and friend Thomas Gottschalk may be richer, but Günther Jauch was voted the most popular German. His show “Who wants to be a millionaire” has been a long-running hit on German television for over 20 years. The TV star lives with his wife Thea and their four children in an imposing, three-storey family villa on the banks of the Havel in Potsdam. The property has a large garden and even its own jetty. In addition to his TV career, the 65-year-old is also socially committed and donates all his income from advertising contracts. Now he has also fulfilled a dream: Together with top chef Tim Raue, he bought and renovated “Haus Kellermann” in Potsdam. Today, the building serves as a restaurant and meeting place for the neighborhood – another chapter in Jauch’s impressive vita.
Stefan Raab, villa worth millions with security service and private path
During his time on “TV Total”, the presenter was known for cleverly luring his guests out of their shells. In his private life, however, Stefan Raab prefers a secluded life. The 54-year-old lives with his wife and two children in a magnificent 1920s villa in the exclusive Hahnwald district of Cologne. The neighborhood has a 24-hour security service and his private path is regularly monitored. During his active television career, Raab was repeatedly confronted with lawsuits and had to pay high fines for damage to his reputation. Today, the butcher’s son prefers to retreat behind the scenes. With his production company “Brainpool”, he is constantly developing new formats such as “Schlag den Star” or “Das Ding des Jahres” and thus remains a formative figure in the German television landscape.
