1. She has more than 800 million
He is not poor and never was poor. He had money when he became a Lt. Gov. Long time ago. Not 800 million but not shabby either.

5. You have got to be kidding right?

It is documented that between his 1st and 2nd marriage, he didn't even have an official residence for some time and was bumming off of his kids, other women, and friends.

A contractor provided a nice spiffy condo for $200/month and later a lobbyist let him live in another ritzy place for free. He "leased" a car for free for 18 months. Lobbyists fed him.

CBS reported that Kerry received "financial assistance" from 1st wife Julia Thorne.

This is what will be Kerry's downfall. He is basically a kept man and has been that way for years and years.

2. it's his wife's money
he has some money of his own which his parents left him when they died, but nothing nearly as what his wife has. but anytime he has to disclose or report his income or assets, it's combined with that of his wife's.

4. His 1st wife was worth $300 Million - His current wife is worth $700 Mil
It's a shame Jean Kroc is no longer alive.

Sam Walton had a daughter.

I wonder if she's single.
