“Middle Class” Joe Biden Raking In Millions… - usmbacker - 03-18-2019 05:15 PM
Hero of the working class. Nothing wrong with being successful and accumulating wealth if it was done legit. Biden trying to act like he is middle class is funny.
Quote:“Middle-Class Joe” Biden has a $2.7 million vacation home. He charges more than $100,000 per speaking gig and has inked a book deal likely worth seven figures.
Since leaving office in 2017, the 76-year-old former vice president has watched his bank account swell as he continues to cultivate the image of a regular, Amtrak-riding guy. He’s repeatedly referred to himself as “Middle-Class Joe” on the campaign trail and in speaking engagements as he publicly mulls whether to run for president.

Good for Joe.

It is good for Joe, but don't spin the average guy thing in to it. Be honest about it.

He got an advance on a book deal and bought a vacation home at age 75. I don't think Joe has to spin anything.

How many $100,000 speeches has he given in the last 24 months? Each one constitutes more income than the average middle class family earns in a year.

Yeah. Y’all give Mensa a break here. I can’t even count the numbers of middle class Americans who buy multi million dollar vacation homes in their 70s. They’re impossible to count there’s so many of them.

To think of all the reports I had to talk about in HS. I didn't get a cent and I wasn't even middle class.

Another example of not being around money.
Did Mitt buy a vacation home in Utah?

Biden will get crushed in the primaries. There is no rationale for his campaign, except that he has a deep psychological craving to be President. That was worth about 1% of the vote in Iowa when he did this in 2007/08.

Yea, we heard that angle with the Cank, got us the trump instead.
Welcome to 2024 I guess.

Trump has experience losing along with Reagan and Bush.
Cank had an automatic bye into the championship. Biden will have to earn it.

it would be interesting if Cuban runs in '24 as a donk....I'm actually begging for it...
however, I doubt he'd actually pull the trigger...he's not a narcissistic masochist...like DJT, he'd run ® as a sadist....
you never know how time plays out, eh?

I know a few multi millionaires here and they are "average guys". They just have nicer stuff. Then there are some that have to let you know they are worth that much, those are ********.

Quote:“By the time he left the White House, he and his wife, Jill Biden, reported assets between $303,000 and $1 million, as well as liabilities between $560,000 and $1.2 million. "
So in 2016 he had a negative net worth.
About 5% of US households have a net worth over $1 million, and when you factor in age I'd bet about 25% of 70 year olds are millionaires. So I'd say that a man who makes it to age 73 with less than a million dollars in assets is middle class.
He's made a lot of money since 2016 with speeches and book deals. But I doubt it's changed his personality or beliefs.

My biggest wish is the last thing Hillary hears on her deathbed is the announcement that Ivanka Trump has been elected the first female President of the United States.

So many people identify with Ivanka, she’ll definitely win

Sounds to me like he’s irresponsible with money, so perfect for DC.
