Everything I have seen to date put his net worth at $500K to $700K. If it is, indeed, $2 million, it is not really that big considering he has drawn a congressional salary for more than a quarter century.

Even assuming he spends all his congressional salary and saves his outside income with zero investment return, that is only $80K per year in outside income.

Hillary won't even do a single speech for that type of chicken feed.

So, yes, Bernie is a POS, but a net worth like this is very common for anyone who has been in congress less than 1/3rd the time of Bernie.

It's not difficult to build a net worth north of $1m if you work hard and put money aside for investing. Then again, I'm a proud capitalist, not a guilt-ridden socialist.

I don't think it is. I think the author is manipulating the data. Please see my post #21.
