Gojo earns as much as a cabinet minister
- Gojo occupies a very high position
- Gojo's Standing means he makes a lot of money
Gojo has always been one of the most influential figures in the world JJK. Right from his introduction, fans could tell he was someone with great authority. In fact, Gojo single-handedly pushed back Yuji's execution and it showed that the power he wielded was absolutely immense. At the same time, Gojo's association with Jujutsu High certainly meant that he was well paid, especially as a powerful wizard who was 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. As for how rich Gojo really is, it was only recently that the author JJKGege Akutami finally revealed the answer to fans and it surprised quite a few people. Here's what Gege had to say about Gojo's salary:
He receives a monthly salary, so he does not receive a one-time salary. Mei Mei is an exception. As a special class wizard, he probably has a salary comparable to a minister. In addition, as the head of the Gojo family, he also has considerable wealth from it. In any case, Gojo is rich. – Gege Akutami
As evident from Gege's statement, Gojo is making quite a ton of money. Comparing his salary with that of a Japanese minister in 2018, Gojo should earn 200-300 thousand. This amount could be even higher in 2024, and it just goes to show that basically Gojo could easily live a very lavish life.
This means that Goj's work is not easy at all. Gojo doesn't really rest much, and his day is incredibly hectic, with only a few hours off to himself. For the amount of work that Gojo puts in, it's not even enough to get paid as much as he does.
Gojo never checks the price tag before buying things
Gojo has enough money not to worry about price tags
As Gege himself mentioned, Gojo owns as much money as a government minister in Japan, and just to put things into perspective considering how rich Gojo is, Gege told fans that Gojo never actually checks the price of the things he buys. . It's simply because Gojo doesn't care about the price tag because it doesn't affect him much. Of course, this does not mean that Gojo is a billionaire. However, the amount of money he earns is enough for him to fulfill his rich desires. At the same time, it also shows that Gojo is not calculating when it comes to money. Gojo is a spendthrift and gets everything he likes for himself without even bothering to check how expensive things are. If Gojo likes something, chances are he'll buy it as soon as he can, and thanks to the great salary, he's not restricted.

Gojo is more than rich
While fans know that Gojo is incredibly wealthy, his political influence is also massive. Gojo basically runs the world JJK in a way. As Gojo himself said at the beginning of the series, if he wanted to, he could kill everyone in the Jujutsu hierarchy and there was nothing anyone could do about it. But that wasn't the way he wanted to do things, at least in the beginning, which is why Gojo wanted to lead a peaceful revolution. Goji certainly managed to raise incredibly powerful students, and in the grand scheme of things, his idea of changing the world actually worked.
Although Gojo is only a Jujutsu teacher, his influence in the political world is absolutely enormous. Gojo is free to make massive decisions or go against the decisions of those who rule the world. This was clearly seen when he prevented the execution of people like Yuta Okkotsu and later Yuji as well. If that wasn't enough, fans should also keep in mind that Gojo is the head of the Gojo Clan and that as one of the leaders of the big three families, he is easily one of the most powerful people in the entire world.
Gojo has such influence that people around him simply follow him, even if they have a higher authority than him. Gojo doesn't take orders from anyone and does what he wants. In many ways, Gojo is the most free-spirited character in JJK, and despite being immature at times, he's certainly one of the most beloved individuals in the franchise.
If Gojo wanted to take over, he could have everything. There is absolutely no one in the world of JJK who is capable of stopping him. Fortunately for everyone, Gojo wasn't a sinister villain, but a goofy teacher with a big heart and lots of money.
