Jefferson's father owned some 6000 acres of land which was a lot of land even in those days and would be worth millions today. He died at age 49 and so was not able to realize his full potential for making money, but he was far from poor.

Thomas Jefferson had a very rich mother so he lived on a large estate but on his estate he had on average about 200 slaves which was good back then and horrible today for so many people.
