What is Theresa Nist's net worth? Fans warn 'The Golden Bachelor' winner to get prenup before live TV wedding to ‘shady’ Gerry Turner
SHREWSBURY, NEW JERSEY: After detecting a clue, many speculated that 'The Golden Bachelor' star Gerry Turner picked Theresa Nist for a materialistic purpose. Even though her net worth isn't publicly accessible, estimates suggest she's worth up to $1 million.
Gerry has come under fire from fans after the dramatic conclusion of 'The Golden Bachelor' aired this week. Viewers are now convinced that Gerry chose Theresa for a nefarious motive after discovering a detail in a season clip.
The official Bachelor social media platforms aired nostalgic footage from the season leading up to the finale show.
Theresa Nist's profession
On one of the overnight dates with 'The Golden Bachelor,' Theresa opened up to her romantic partner, Gerry, about her professional life. She revealed that she is employed in the field of finance, and her impressive career details are available for viewing on her LinkedIn profile.
She presently works at TFS Securities, Inc., and has 7 years of expertise in the field, according to her resume. During the date, Theresa revealed that she was not always an entrepreneur, preferring to stay at home.
When she decided it was time to start a job, she taught herself how to trade stocks and other things. The businesswoman went on to work at Datek Online, Stifel Nicolaus, Metlife Securities Inc., and Metropolitan Life Insurance.
She works for a firm that "oversees $1 billion in assets across its 5,347 accounts, placing it among the largest firms in the United States by assets under management," according to SmartAdvisor Match. Individuals with more than $1 million in investable assets hold 7% of those accounts.
According to Life&Style, Theresa is worth between $500,000 and $1 million due to her background in personal trading, her present position in a profitable firm, and prospective commission-based payments.
Theresa Nist's house
Before meeting Gerry, Theresa lived in a modest $568,000 New Jersey house, The US Sun can exclusively reveal. The retired restaurateur's lakefront house in Indiana is hundreds of miles from the financial services professional's home in Shrewsbury, New Jersey.
On 'The Golden Bachelor,' while Gerry was in Theresa's hometown, the cast recorded at her daughter Jen Woolston's house. Theresa's house is only a mile and three minutes drive from her daughter's.
On November 28, the reality star was spotted conducting errands before taking a jet to Los Angeles to reconnect with Gerry. The house has one story, three bedrooms, one bathroom, and 1,152 square feet of living area.
It was built in 1953 and has a shed in the back for extra storage, a driveway, a little fence in front of a pathway going up to the front door, and a porch. The mother of two has created a quirky garden in her backyard.
Theresa has previously shared images on Instagram of her efforts to make her property more appealing. She displayed hydrangeas, pink roses, sunflowers, and other bright flora in one post.
Among the flowers, she has a brownstone water fountain, which she describes as "the most amazing birthday gift" she received from her daughter and family. When Theresa isn't gardening in the summer, she likes spending time at the nearby beach, which is less than 15 minutes away.
The Jersey native and her late husband, William "Bill" Nist, paid $311,900 for the home in 2009. According to real estate records, it is currently valued at $568,700.
When Theresa discussed her job, Gerry knew she "had her s**t together."
"Theresa's very accomplished in her career," he said in a confessional. "I'm totally impressed by her ability to start a business and work it into something that's much larger. It's quite incredible."
However, as fans piece together the finale, others are concerned that picking Theresa is merely a ruse to acquire her money.
"Anyone else notice Gerry’s face light up when he learned about how much money Teresa makes, when he previously couldn’t be more disinterested in being around her after being with Leslie?" one noted.
Another user chimed in, "Is it just me that thinks Gerry became a lot more interested in Teresa, after finding out about what she did to create her wealth??? I got questions…"
One also commented, "I think he went for the one he thought was more financially attractive."
"Teresa needs to rethink about marrying him so soon. He could be after her money, and it could be why he chose her," one more advised.
On X, fan wrote, "Theresa baby get a prenup #GoldenBachelor I ain’t trustin him around the women he’s loved." "Teresa get that prenup girl," wrote another
