BARACK OBAMA – $8.1 MILLION, WASHINGTON, D.C.

At present, Barack Obama’s net worth is reportedly at $70 million. This tends to surprise many considering his political history. It is important to note that both he and his wife were not wealthy for most of their adult lives. In fact, for quite a period of time, it was Michelle Obama who served as the breadwinner of their family. She made 274k annually from her job as a lawyer. The first time they became millionaires were in 2005, and it is mainly with thanks to the book royalties they received after Obama forayed into politics. While he served as the President of the United States, he received a yearly salary of $400,000 a year.

The family practiced excellent money management even during his time in office. Upon leaving it, however, they bought a gorgeous mansion in Washington D.C. worth $8.1 million. They also invested in a property in Martha’s Vineyard back in 2019, which has a $14.9 million price tag on it.
