35+ Political Figures With Enviable Networth Amounts To Their Name
Colin Powell – $60 Million
Former United States Secretary of State Colin Powell sadly passed away in October 2021. At the time of his demise, he left behind a fortune assessed to be around $60 million. An amount that wasn’t so surprising since the four-star general worked from high school until his retirement. Before acquiring his highest position in office, Powell served as a professional soldier for 35 years.
The fortune he accumulated came mainly from speaking engagements, like many other retired politicians. The military man reportedly earned $7 million in 2000 alone, because of 109 lectures and other speaking events he was booked in. The amount the late politician earned per guesting ranged from $64K to $100K.
