What is Dustin Hurt's Net Worth?
Dustin Hurt is an American contractor, wildland firefighter, and reality television personality who has a net worth of $1 million dollars. Dustin Hurt was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, and began his professional career working in construction in Louisiana directly out of high school. When he was in his early 20s, he shifted his focus to firefighting, becoming a wildland firefighter for the California Forest Service. He worked for several years as a self-contained firefighting unit.
His job was to suppress forest fires before they spread, and he often worked alone. He left firefighting to join his father at the Jim Placer Mine. He has been featured on the reality series, "Gold Rush" on the Discovery Channel since its second season. Though his father struggled during his first couple seasons, the mine was moderately successful during the show's third season, netting the group of miners over a 1/4 of a million dollars in gold.
