Joe Biden, $8 Million
Joe Biden assumed arguably the most powerful office in the world as the President of the United States in January 2021, following Donald Trump. At that time, his net worth combined with that of his wife was estimated at $8 million. Besides his demanding job, he’s known to have collected some of that sum outside of politics.
Once the self-proclaimed poorest man in Congress, Biden mainly earned his living from book deals and public speaking gigs. Gobankingrates.com claims that his salary in the White House is $400K, almost half of when he was the vice president, and he reportedly earned $170K in the Senate.
