2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumClinton, from the debate: "And yes, the economy is rigged in favor of those at the top."
Our Hillary Clinton net worth number comes from analyzing her 2015 U.S. Public Financial Disclosure Reports.
Bill Clinton has an estimated net worth of $80 million.
That gives a combined Bill and Hillary Clinton net worth of $111 million dollars.
U.S. presidential candidates arent required to reveal their exact net worth, so Hillary Clintons net worth is only available within a range.
That means learning Hillary Clintons net worth can only be done by averaging out her reported min and max figures.
In May of 2015, Hillary Clinton reported net worth assets of at least $10,830,007 and at most $51.7 million.
Mrs. Clinton did not report any real estate or debts.
If the Clintons do own property or debts, its all in Bill Clintons name.
Placing assets and liabilities in Bills name would mean they wouldnt be reported as part of Hillary Clintons net worth.
Hillary Clinton net worth vs Bernie Sanders net worth: 59 times larger.

(2,052 posts)Who I have recruited but is usually disengaged politically, sat and watched with me last night. No less than five times did she say, "She took the exact words Bernie uses"

(2,052 posts)And she originally (like many including myself) figured Hillary would be a shoo-in. She loved Bill. But she watched and just did not believe her sincerity. Which is not at all uncommon as the polling shows.

(13,305 posts)..it's the advocacy and embrace of policies which protect that wealth at all costs, and give those with such levels of wealth and inordinate amount of say in our government's policies and it's representatives.
If someone advocating the policies of Sanders and Warren had that much money then I personally would have no issue with the wealth itself. But Clinton's coziness with those entities which would seek to insulate themselves from any checks and balances (be they from the government or the economic structure itself) on that wealth means that in her case it IS and SHOULD be an issue.

(7,830 posts)I don't know how she says these things with a straight face.
Especially about jobs for Americans.
Here's one example of what she says when she isn't campaigning for our votes~
2005, while smoozing with India's govt & lobbying for American corporate outsourcing:

There IS a way Hillary. Its called regulating. We know you & your republican friends are against regulating, but the stop lights are needed to keep America strong & her people gainfully employed.
