Net Worths: Check Out The Big Bucks Some American Politicians Are Raking In!
Jim Justice – $513 Million
Jim Justice, the acclaimed 36th governor of West Virginia, amassed significant wealth in 2009 when he sold a group of his most extensive coal mines in the state to a Russian business for $500 million. He also made hundreds of millions of dollars in Mechel Stock simultaneously, which increased his net worth to an astounding $1.1 billion at the time.
As a result, he earned a spot on The Forbes 400 in 2011 and the honor of being the wealthiest person in West Virginia. However, the Justice family’s wealth has declined along with the state of the coal business. His net worth has dropped to roughly $513 million.
