This is so not newsworthy. $1M isn't that much these days when you add in the value of real estate and businesses. And 401(k)s can grow quite nicely with tax-deferred status and employer contributions. Of course, the value of those retirement and investment accounts won't reflect their current value, which is way down at the moment.
I took the most conservative estimate I found, many said "over 2.3 million", and it is newsworthy, in *my* opinion, when one is trying to bill themselves as 'joe six-pack, sitting around the kitchen table trying to pay their bills.'
I also dispute the fact that taxes weren't paid on the per diem of $17,000 and pawning ones expensive *hobby* of snow-machine racing as a *job*.
Again, you'll note by far the majority of posts I've made this week have been 'on topic'. And I did note this one as 'off topic'.
This article states $1M. It sounds like a lot was made from the fishing business before she became Governor. I'm fine with someone running a successful business.
I am sure Obama and Biden have financial assets squirreled away, too.
The $17K sounds like a dispute between tax attorneys with differing interpretation of a tax law. That's not her fault.
Good you marked this OT, since it is.
