Some Political Leaders Are Living Large While Pretending to Understand the Struggle

Al Gore (Born in 1948) – $300 Million

Al Gore turned climate activism into cold, hard cash! With an estimated net worth of $300 million, the former Vice President went from politics to business—and it paid off big time. After serving alongside Bill Clinton from 1993 to 2001, he shifted his focus to environmental causes.

His 2006 documentary, An Inconvenient Truth, won an Oscar and made climate change a global conversation. In 2012, he cashed in by selling his stake in Current TV for a reported $100 million. He also co-founded Generation Investment Management, which focuses on sustainable investing. Adding to his wealth, he’s been a board member at Apple and an advisor to Google.
