Gojo earns as much as a minister

• Gojo has a very high position
• Gojo standing means he makes a lot of money

Gojo has always been one of the most influential characters in the world JJK. From the very introduction, fans could tell that he was someone with a lot of authority. In fact, Gojo single-handedly pushed back Yuji's execution, showing that the power he wielded was absolutely immense. Meanwhile, Gojo working with Jujutsu High certainly meant he was well paid, especially as a powerful wizard who would be sent on the most difficult tasks. If that wasn't enough, fans know that the Gojo family belonged to one of the three great families and that he was actually the head of the Gojo clan. This meant that he would always be incredibly rich. About how rich Gojo really is, it was only recently that the author of JJKGege Akutami, finally revealed the answer to the fans and it has surprised quite a few people. Here's what Gege had to say about Gojo's salary:

He gets a monthly salary, so he doesn't get his salary as a lump sum. Mei Mei is an exception. As a special class wizard, he probably earns a salary comparable to a minister. In addition, as the head of the Gojo family, he has significant assets from it as well. At least Gojo is rich. – Gege Akutami

As can be seen from Gege's statement, Gojo is making a lot of money. If you compare his salary to that of a government minister in Japan in 2018, Gojo should be earning somewhere between 200 and 300,000. This amount could be even higher in 2024, and it just goes to show that Gojo could basically live a very lavish life with ease .

That said, Gojo's job is not easy at all. Gojo doesn't actually get much rest, and his day is incredibly busy, with only a few hours of free time to himself. For the amount of work that Gojo puts in, even getting as much money as he does is not enough.

Gojo never checks the price tag before buying things

Gojo has enough money not to care about price tags

As mentioned by Gege himself, Gojo owns as much money as a government minister in Japan, and just to put things into perspective as to how rich Gojo is, Gege told fans that Gojo never actually checks the price tag of the things he buys. . It's simply because Gojo doesn't care about the price tag as it doesn't affect him that much. Of course, that doesn't mean Gojo is a billionaire. But the amount of money he earns is enough for him to feed his lavish desires. At the same time, it also shows that Gojo does not calculate when it comes to money. Gojo is a spendthrift and he gets everything he loves for himself and doesn't even bother to check how expensive things are. If Gojo likes something, chances are he'll buy it as soon as he can, and thanks to his nice salary, he's not restricted in any way.

This is the kind of carefree personality that fans admire in him and is one of the main reasons why he is as loved as he is. Of course, fans rarely get to see the everyday life of the JJK characters, but when they have, Gojo has always been incredibly exciting and fun to watch. Gege revealing these intriguing tidbits of information about Gojo just goes to show that he really is one of his favorite characters and that his importance to the overall plot JJK is absolutely huge.

Gojo also has a lot of political power

Gojo is more than just rich

Although fans know that Gojo is incredibly rich, his political influence is also enormous. Gojo essentially runs the world JJK in a way. As Gojo himself expressed at the beginning of the series, if he wanted to, he could kill everyone in the Jujutsu hierarchy and no one could do anything about it. But that wasn't how he wanted to do things, at least in the beginning, and that's why Gojo wanted to lead a peaceful revolution. Gojo really did manage to raise some incredibly powerful students, and in the grand scheme of things, his idea of ​​changing the world really worked.

Even though Gojo is only a Jujutsu teacher, his influence in the political world is absolutely enormous. Gojo can freely make massive decisions, or go against the decisions of those who rule the world. This was clearly seen when he prevented the execution of the likes of Yuta Okkotsu, and later Yuji as well. If that wasn't enough, fans should also remember that Gojo is the head of the Gojo clan, and as one of the leaders of the three great families, he is easily one of the most powerful people in the entire world.

Gojo's influence is such that those around him simply follow him, even when they have higher authority than him. Gojo doesn't take orders from anyone and does what he wants. In many ways, Gojo is the freest character in JJK and despite being immature at times, he is truly one of the most beloved individuals in the franchise.

If Gojo wanted to take power, he could have had everything. There is absolutely no one in JJK's world who would have been capable of stopping him. Thankfully for everyone, Gojo wasn't an evil villain but a goofy teacher with a big heart and lots of money instead.

Jujutsu Kaisen's final chapter, JJK 271, was finally released on September 29, 2024. Fans can read the series on Manga Plus and Shonen Jump apps.
