Dave Courtney’s net worth at death: How much was Dave Courtney’s worth?
There are numerous outlets reporting a net worth of around $5million (£4.1million). At the top end of the scale, IdolNetWorth has the writer’s net worth at a whopping $30million (£24.7million).
Courtney had a few close shaves when it comes to serving time — in 2009 the former gangster avoided jail time after being charged with two firearm offenses.
However, former members of the Richardson gang, Bernard O’Mahoney, and Frankie Fraser, have accused Courtney of fabricating and embellishing his past criminal record – which Courtney has denied.
He died on October 22, 2023, with Dave’s neighbor Sheila Wellcome, 68, telling The Sun that Courtney’s pal rang to tell her this morning that he had been “shot”. He lived in Plumstead, southeast London, in a house known as Camelot Castle until his death.
