I remember when Newt helped win the House in the 90’s, first time in 40 years.

You probably heard something about Newt's book deal immediately after. He was offered first $2.5 million, then $4.5 million by Harper Collins.

He had his hand out weeks after the victory.

In 1988 when Newt firsrt came to Washington his “net worth statement” said that he was worth $10,000. He left ten years later in 1998 it was $7.5 Million. How does one do that on less than $150,000 per year? I doubt that $5,000 speaking fees explains it.

Do you have a credible source link for the net worth allegations?
