American Politicians With Bank Accounts That Rival Celebrities
George W. Bush (Born In 1946) – $40 Million
Before stepping into the Oval Office as the 43rd President of the United States, George W. Bush was already a wealthy businessman. His entrepreneurial spirit first took off in the oil and gas industry when he founded Arbusto Energy in 1977, earning $75K a year and holding 1.1 million shares.
George also made a smart move by investing in the Texas Rangers baseball team, which paid off handsomely. When he sold company shares in 1998, he pocketed $14 million. Combined with all the political earnings, including his time as governor of Texas, his fortune is estimated at around $40 million.
