Barack Obama owns a net worth of $12, 2 million.
Barack comes from a middle-class family. His earnings increased after graduation from Harvard Law School. He was hired as a young lawyer to Sidley Austin Law firm and got quite solid salary.
Obama’s childhood was not ideal. He missed his father, who left the family, when his son was just an infant. Later Obama described his pain in the book, which he released in 1995. The book has become a bestseller and that’s why soon Barack’s pockets were filled with money.
Having become initially successful as a lawyer, Barack Obama got keen on politics. He was elected to Illinois State Senate in 1996. Six years later he managed to win a seat at the U. S. senate. Probably, his victory was possible because of personal problems of his main rival, Jack Ryan, whose reputation was destroyed by his wife, the movie star Jeri Ryan, so he called off his candidacy.
Barack served as the U. S. President during 8 years. Numerous times he was included in Forbes list of the most influential people in the world. Obama kept in balance his personal and professional life. Together with his wife, Michelle, he cares about his two daughters, Malia and Natasha.
