How Do These Politicians In The US Get So Rich? Find Out And Check Out Their Impressive Net Worths!
Ted Cruz – 50, $4 Million
Attorney turned politician Ted Cruz is among the most popular senators in the US, and it’s all for a good reason. The politician is known for his vocal nature, no-nonsense stance, and substantial annual salary, said to be somewhere in the region of $176K.
Over the years, Cruz has amassed over $4 million in assets, ensuring that his family’s financial future is secured. Considering that he still is actively involved in politics and has a couple of businesses running, it won’t be surprising to see his bank balance significantly grow in the near future.
Bill Clinton – 75, $120 Million
While in office, Bill Clinton promises he barely made any money, and it is clear to see why. Yet, the former statesman went from somewhat financial obscurity to a massive fortune of $120 million afterward.

This impressive wealth can be attributed to Bill’s tour across the country, making public appearances and speeches. Furthermore, he wrote a memoir that still rakes in millions today. That is an impressive feat since Bill left the White House with an immense amount of debt stemming from legal fees. So now here we are, looking at a positive appreciation of his wealth very few people can even dream of achieving.
Kamala Harris – 56, $5 Million
Kamala Harris made it to history textbooks for being the first female vice president of the United States. Before that, the woman had worked as an attorney and a vocal politician. This new prestigious position brought Harris into the limelight, and we are sure it must have doubled the amount on her paycheck as well.

Everything seems sorted in Kamala’s life! Over the years, her bank balance has grown substantially. She further works on increasing her credit score by investing in real estate. Both her parents were Ph.D. scholars, no wonder Kamala has such a sharp mind.
Mike Pence – 62, $1 Million
Holding an influential political post comes with some perks, among them a hefty paycheck. Yet when Mike Pence got selected to be Donald Trump’s running mate in 2016, he wasn’t financially well off compared to his peers, and his wife even confirmed it.

Still, Pence’s wealth has doubled since then and now has a substantial bank balance of over $1 million. Whether the figure rises in the coming years remains to be seen, but we bet with a good financial advisor and some speaking gigs lined up, the former vice president will have his retirement plan all sorted out.
Donald Trump – 75, $2.5 Billion
Donald Trump has done it all at this point. From being a business mogul to becoming a reality star and finally landing the top spot in the Oval office. This man is the epitome of grabbing the bull by its horns and going after what you want in life.

Mr. Trump holds an impressive fortune estimated at $2.5 billion, making him the wealthiest president the nation has ever had. We highly doubt he touched his presidential salary as he had all the money he needed already. Still, we do wonder if the former president’s pay was even remotely close to taking care of Donald’s weekly expenses?
