Fact check by Reuters’ Fact Check 

‘ [sic] Ocasio-Cortez’s most recent financial disclosure, filed in 2021, shows she had between $3,003 and $45,000 in assets, including her 401k pension plan, and owed at least $15,000 in student debts. Despite this, inaccurate posts circulating on social media and articles have claimed that Ocasio-Cortez has a net worth of $29 million. ...' [sic]

AOC had earned $330,000.

~~~

Your income and your ‘net worth’ are two very different things.

She could be heavily invested in a lot of things. In fact, I would be very surprised if she wasn’t.

Didn’t AOC give/put $1 million to her boy friend or his company ?

If she had invested some of that money, wouldn’t it count as part of her net worth?

I think a person spending wisely would have a higher net worth after acquiring $300k over 2 years. Sheesh, my 20-something kids have more net worth!

She opened the door now for the question. Then how much is she worth now?

Her website only says no source is cited for the claim and won’t confirm or deny the claim. Maybe it’s more than $29 M.

Exactly.

Plus, politicians get a lot of insider information, and I’m sure what Wall Street loves to have open channels of communication with them, even if they are back channeled through family members who it’s okay to give perks to.

She has a nice figure and the face of a donkey.

Not being fat is all it takes now for a girl to be “hot.”

I wouldn’t vote for her if she was the last person on Earth, but if you compare her to other lib women, she’s not bad in a pinch.

They are citing a 2001 Reuters “fact check” that was updated in 2022. She filed in 2023, listing her boyfriend as her spouse.

Her 2022 financial disclosure form (filed in August of last year) is here: https://disclosures-clerk.house.gov/public_disc/financial-pdfs/2022/10052480.pdf

Where did all the money go indeed. It’s not so different from the earlier forms. What happened to her salary? Eaten up by student loan payments?

It seems like either a PAC or her campaign paid him at least $12K in 2017.

Why don’t I have any friends running for office?
