Well if Ted Cruz is so smart, why ain’t he rich?

[nascarnation]

Actually by “normal” standards he’s quite well off, low 7 digit family incom.

Obviously his ticket to the huge money arrives in later years.

[Ms Mable]

I’d guess he quite well off, and it’s probably hid offshore somewhere.

Well, maybe cuz he is in the “PUBLIC SERVANT” tradition as in Harry (I made all my boys rich) or Ol’Denny Hastert and his land deals???

[Old Yeller]

Well if Ted Cruz is so smart, why ain’t he rich?

His dad couldn't give him the seed money Trumps dad did.

[Timmy]

Daddy didn’t give him $200 million.

Family was pulling in over a million a year, and not giving a penny of it to the church. Unless they have some really bad habits, they should have a net worth well into the millions. (One web site says %3.5 million. Sounds a bit low given the income stream). No Hillary Clinton, but quite well off.
