United States Senator Elizabeth Warren has made quite a name for herself since she first became a Senator from Massachusetts in 2012. In four years, she has gone from first time Senator to potential face of the Democratic Party. It’s quite the accomplishment, but naturally it’s riddled with mystery.

Warren has risen through the Democratic Party, amid controversy over her heritage. She claims that she is Native American, something that her opponent in the 2012 Senate race criticized because she hasn’t allowed the public to see if her claim can be verified. Naturally, that isn’t all the controversy surrounding Warren.

As with most Senators, she is quite wealthy. In fact, she is in the top one percent of the nation, and yet she claims to be a fighter for the middle class. Her tax returns however, show that she was worth about $15 million at the time of her Senate race.

A Congresswoman worth $15 million? How in the world can she claim to be a fighter for the middle class when she is worth that much money? Also, how in the world did she even make all that money? As a Senator, she earns approximately $174,000 per year.

Basic math shows that someone who makes that much over the course of one term, which is six years, would only give a total of $1,044,000. While that is a lot of money, you still have to subtract two years from that total, because she hasn’t served that time yet. So after the subtraction, her net worth as a Senator is only worth a little under $700,000, before taxes of course.

She spent about 20 full years as a professor. With the latest salary, that gives a grand total of just over $8 million. That’s still a far cry from the $15 million she was worth during her Senate run. However that was just the latest salary. That wasn’t telling if she had had any raises or what. So we can agree that the number is skewed a little and that was before taxes.

So the additional income streams come from royalties and some book deals. Again, this is someone that was worth $15 million and about half of that came from her time as a professor. You’re telling me that the other half came from some book deals?

What a brilliant choice that the Democrats have made for the new voice of the party. For a Party that seems to want to move on from Hillary Clinton, another person that has had mysterious money growth in her run to be a Senator, they didn’t go very far.
