F.Y.I.* As I am not a fan politically of Al Gore, I do admire him for his investment capabilities.
In 2000, when he ran against George W. Bush and lost, his net worth was $2million. His family had money, not great wealth in the scheme of things, but not shabby either. That allowed him to "afford" to enter politics. Remember you have to have a place to eat and sleep and a residency in Washington DC and the state you represent.* You have to be in Washington D.C when it's in session then home to curry favor with the voters. most personal costs are doubled.*
There are many representatives who*double-up or more in accommodations. in Washington DC every move they make is weighed by the press. They love nothing better than to get dirt on a public figure. That's national press and their home state press too.
He left politics*and went to work for Goldman Sachs, the second largest investment bank in the world.
He is no chump, or a crook.* He invested in a startup*companies called Al Jazeera, and Apple, and when they went public his net worth went to $200million, He also won the Nobel Peace Prize and that came with $1.5 million prize and plus the sales of his book that won him the prize.
He continues in investments and HIs net worth is currently estimated at $300 million. What his wife's net worth is I don't, but Al Gore is a public figure,*and his financial history is in the public domain.
In the USA any reporter who dug and dug would find any skullduggery, financial*or otherwise, and many love nothing better than finding dirt on someone in a scandal,*All Gore is clean.
As for the plane, I'm sure it's leased and if that's in his wife's name that could be for personal income tax reasons. In any case with that kind of net worth he could give it to his wife for Christmas.
I repeat, His financial dealings are in the public domain.
He's clean.
