  • That's lower than I was expecting.

  • Not surprising, but it certainly explains why so many members of Congress have a hard time relating to ordinary Americans who are struggling economically.

    I'd love to know the median net worth of those running for president...

    No, not all of it is public information, which is why we always wait for candidates (*cough*Romney*cough) to graciously release their tax returns when they're running for high office. And even that doesn't tell the whole story.

    Amen. Because we'd all love to make Romney's version of "not very much." That being $375k.

    My favorite place on earth: The Amargosa Valley.
