If you have read the Bio of John Adams by McCullough you get some sense of what he and others thought of Jefferson.  His biggest problem his entire life was profligate personal spending and taking on enormous debt (for the time).  Apparently he had a shopping disorder and loved clothes, furniture, art and other luxuries but never had the financial resources to pay for them. 

Having said that, he was obviously a brilliant and great man and made a tremendous contribution to the formation of this great country.
