Saed News: As the U.S. presidential election approaches, we take a closer look at the assets and wealth of Trump and Harris, two of America's leading political figures.
According to the political affairs desk of Saed News, amid the intense rivalry between Trump and Harris—two U.S. presidential candidates—one topic that has drawn significant public interest, especially among their supporters, is their net worth. Below are the details, as reported by Forbes.
According to Forbes, U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris has an estimated net worth of around $8 million. However, this wealth was not primarily earned through her political career.
After earning her law degree, Harris became the District Attorney of San Francisco in 2004, receiving an annual salary of $140,000. By 2010, this figure had risen to over $200,000.
That year, she became California’s Attorney General, and her salary dropped to $159,000. Seven years later, in 2017, she joined the U.S. Senate, where she earned an annual salary of $174,000.
In 2012, following their mother's death, Harris and her sister sold her Oakland home for $710,000, which also contributed to Harris’s wealth.
What About Donald Trump’s Net Worth?
But how does Kamala Harris’s net worth compare to that of her Republican rival, Donald Trump? According to Forbes, Trump’s net worth is currently estimated at $6.8 billion—up significantly from $3.9 billion at the end of September, nearly doubling.
A large portion of this comes from the parent company of his social media platform, Truth Social. However, Trump has also amassed millions through his real estate holdings.
He owns Trump Tower in New York, three homes in Florida, and the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. His other properties—including Mar-a-Lago, six U.S. golf courses, a resort in Miami, and three golf courses in Europe—are valued at $810 million.
Forbes estimates that Trump possesses over $410 million in cash and liquid assets, along with $100 million in non-liquid assets.
