From Roll Call's list of the 50 wealthiest members of Congress, published September, 2002

17. (tie) Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), $16 million

Judging by her personal financial statement, the new Minority Whip has as much a command over her personal finances as she does her colleagues.

Pelosi owes much of her wealth to the success and savvy investments of her businessman husband, Paul, who has diverse holdings in everything from resort hotels to wine estates and the limousine business.

This year the couple's assets jumped from around $14 million to $16 million, with the largest asset being their St. Helena vineyard and residences valued at between $5 million and $25 million.

Other sizable assets include their personal residence on K Street in Washington valued at between $1 million to $5 million, several million dollars' worth of commercial property in San Francisco, and her husband's real estate partnership, worth between $1 million and $5 million. The couple also have dozens of other stock and real estate investments, most of them in Paul Pelosi's name.

The couple also purchased a new town home last December in Norden, Calif., worth between $1 million and $5 million.

How GREEDY! That money could have bought a huge apartment complex for the homeless! Did you see the film that Pelosi's daughter made called Journeys with George? She had the nerve to ask him what he plans to do for the homeless. What are her rich parents doing for the homeless? Liberals deserve to be judged by their own standards!
