How did Henry Cole make his money?

#HenryCole #WorldsGreatestMotorcycleRides #TheMotorbikeShow
• Henry Cole, with prestigious family ties and a personal victory over heroin addiction, transitioned from education at Eton College to becoming a significant figure in the motorcycle industry and a successful entrepreneur through his work in television and film.
• His career evolved from a news cameraman to directing rockumentaries and the semi-autobiographical film "Mad Dogs and Englishmen," showcasing his versatility and creative talent.
• Henry's passion for motorbikes led to his fame in the motorcycle world, hosting popular TV shows like "World’s Greatest Motorcycle Rides" and "The Motorbike Show," and founding HCA Entertainment, which produces factual entertainment programs.
• Apart from television, Henry ventured into the motorcycle manufacturing industry with Gladstone Motorcycles, creating bespoke British custom motorcycles, and set a world land speed record in 2013.
• Henry's journey from battling addiction to achieving an estimated net worth of $5 million illustrates his resilience, versatility, and entrepreneurial spirit, making him a compelling figure in both the entertainment and motorcycle industries.

    Should he be worth more than his $5 million net worth, or less?

    As one of the very few Broadcasters who makes motorcycle programs for U.K. tv and brings us such knowledgeable motorcycle and car presenters and engineers like Sam Lovegrove, Guy Wilson,Fuzz Townshend and the genius that is Allen Millyard and finds time to make his own motorcycles brand ( Gladstone motorcycles) those of us who enjoy such programs think he is doing a very good job and if he makes a living out of that good luck to him.

    I think Henry is one of the most genuine people on TV. However he makes his money is his business and no one else. I do hope you don't get too many likes and payment from KZread for simply using someone else's talent. It's low.
