Joe Biden | House Tour | His Delaware & Virginia Houses

Hard as it may be to believe but the incoming Presidential Elect, Joe Biden now has a career in public office dating back over 44 years! That’s close to double my age! Throughout that entire time, he’s had the nickname: Middle-Class Joe – and has often referred to himself as one of the poorest members of congress. These days, he’s definitely NOT the poorest member of congress with multiple real estate holdings like a few in Delaware and living in lavish homes throughout the years, which we’ll check out in this video. Joe Biden comes from scrappy roots – he was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, to a father that suffered a series of financial setbacks, and for a sort-time there at least, Joe wasn’t any different. According to the Wall Street Journal, the reason why Biden was so often at the bottom of the wealth ladder among his other colleagues in the Senate had a lot to do with his life-long obsession for real estate. As he grew older, his net-worth was often in the negatives and by 2007, he was ranked as the least wealthy Senator in the U.S. when his net worth was estimated to be less than $30,000. But today, the 77-year-old Presidential-Elect is far from the middle class. According to a 2019 Forbes estimate, Biden and his wife Jill are now worth as much as $9 Million – much of which was earned from $100,000 speaking fees and $8 Million book deals that came pouring in after his Vice Presidency.
