Not gonna lie love the fact he served and military aid helped him avoid debt that has been hurting a lot of us
Yeah my GI Bill kept me out of debt thankfully.
He had $120,000 student loans from his law degree. His GI bill paid for his undergraduate education.
@@yaserchowthanks for your service 🙏
@@janethughes966 🫡
Better to the gi bill then something for nothing people
He didn't get rich on insider trading and being in Congress for his entire adult life! He made it on his own because he's a hard worker, and he's smart.
Oh but he will, believe it he will.
Not smart but cunning, an opportunist.
@@susantang287opportunist? Every step of the way for him was calculated and intentional. Thats not opportunism.
@@Jasper118 I guess you miss the word ‘cunning’.
lol he only invested in a single company and that company failed, his entire career is thanks to Peter Theil.
his boss is on record that Vance doesnt even used to work much
Personally, I don’t really care what he’s worth in money. What I care about is his worth when it comes to supporting and his word to fight for the American citizen. His worth will be defined when debates the dems, follows through with his intentions, keeps his word to fight for the working man. His worth to us as the working man is not his money it’s his word.
Good for him. Can we be positive towards someone’s financial success anymore?
Sure can bc he started "honestly"...
goof for peter thiel that his paid for candidate is in race
I started off with a "small loan" of a million dollars.
@@OrangeClown34 Regarding venture capital that is very small... miniscule...
Yes!
I think that JD Vance is a great successful person coming up from ashes to fame! Love it!!!!
hahahaha JD vance never worked in his life, he was in PR dept in marines and his career is just Peter theil paying him while grooming him
@@UtubeisevilYou can't deny his upbringing. He is rags to riches.
@@overman2306 Yeah, he is rags to riches for sure... but you don't have to love or respect him just because he's rich (or even gone from poor to rich). The measure of a man is not his money (or success), but in his character, dignity, humanity, morals and ethical standards. It's not about his wealth, but how he accumulated that wealth.
@alexleanh Yeah sure buddy. It is better to be poor and equal, because equality is the goal, right?
@@overman2306 You didn't get it, eh? Think deeper and harder, son!
You get what you work hard for. Good for him. ❤
Shows what determination & ambition can do.
Not feeling sorry, but working to acheive.
That is the Amican dream.
what peter thiel's money can do
It’s giving heavy True American vibes ❤❤
@@lhtss322 hmmmm no more like elite backer vibes…..
Congratulations,👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾⭐️🌟💯💎👍👑🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏, Blessings I am very Proud of you.
He earned it.👍🏻🇺🇸
Such a refreshing analysis of a politician and their success, in a world full of crooked, sleaziness.
Just wait for it
@@momog5615 wait for what?
@brianfolding40 Look up Peter Thiel that was only briefly mentioned. All three of Vance's hedge fund and VC jobs were through Thiel, who also gave $15 million to Vance's PAC for the senate. Thiel is a TechBro that wants reduced regulations on banking, AI, and Crypto. But, you look it all up yourself and decide. Then look up Curtis Yarvin.
There's also a lot of vitriol and jealousy about his success.
Rather see politicians entering politics rich than entering poor and retiring rich.
"America's economy is broken, even though my story is living proof that it's not." - JD Vance
He's an older millennial. Now do Gen Z.
This is the American Dream we all want. J.D. will be a great V.P, God Bless you J. D.
God bless JD Vance.Hard work pays and anyone in USA can do it .The opportunity is out there so take advantage of willing to work hard
Good for him ❤!
Pretty damn good for someone under 40.
True
So he didn’t have to get into politics to get rich?
He seems like a legit man. He has my vote!
The American dream way to go JD Vance.
I don’t agree with his current politics- he’s changed so much. But he literally came from nothing, beat incredible odds and no one can take that from him.
@@charlotteperry86 its called being good faith towards people until they give you a reason to doubt them at their word. Maybe you should try that sometime idk
@@2delegy Yes I agree I will rethink this, thanks and hopefully we will get a new President and VP that will work for us.
@@charlotteperry86 I apologize for my tone, it is actually refreshing to see someone reply and take feedback. I am not supportive or against Vance as of now, but the floor is his to dictate how I feel about him as a VP if elected. He has had some interesting bi-partisan success in congress which I think is not worth overlooking but also doesn't mean the world. I think bridging the gap between parties is important for the future though and especially the children.
No wonder JD is So Awesome. He’s from Kentucky. I’m from Ky
JD Vance worked hard for that money. Much respect for him.
He made his own money 🎉❤
You really think so ????
Remember the old commercial… he got it the old fashion way, HE EARNED IT 😊
GI Bill paid his education. Way to go Marine. Make a great President of the USA
DEI candidate.
Went to Yale. Silicon Valley. Senator. Not exactly what comes to mind when someone says "working class".
He is smart and he never gave up
More power to him 💕I can relate
JD is such an impressive character.
I came out a lower class hard working parents. Went to Ohio State University.
Yale was an almost free ride. What dept do you occur from that?
A law degree, risky business experience and military experience will make him a great President!
@e.t.ethics1771 agreed. He also seems to be the smartest man in the room, which also greatly will improve WDC!
The stuff that comes from his mouth is not for the benefit of all concerned. It is all self serving.
A hillbilly to a successful person. What a good example to everyone of us!
Yes but not when it's full of corruption and hate.
@@omarhalsey3777People like you are full of hate.
Rag to riches. An American dream
I think it's fishy
@@capricorn839You think it's fishy because you're nuts.
@@overman2306 Nah, just do a bit of research on his track record.
@@alexleanh Enlighten us.
His family made $175,000 a year. That's not poverty.
An interesting life still unfolding
Self made but he had a lot of help and good luck along the way.
Considering his credentials, everything sounds about right. 👍🏽
Was not born with a silver spoon a self made man from an impoverished back ground living the American dream.
The American dream achieved
10 million? lol Thats just upper middle class here in NY. Nothing wrong with that, but the title make it sound like he was filthy rich
Thought as much.
Perspective. The title makes it sound like he is wealthy, which he is. Especially when compared to the majority of Americans and the world at large. Forbes News caters to an international market.
Exactly! We looked into buying a condo in manhattan and a decent one costs $1.8 million at least 😂
He's getting up there
Lying on his household wealth. $175,000 a year is not poverty.
Who is J.D Wance? never heard of him! So he should do well in USA Polotics.
Do I detect a tone of jealousy….?
Nah, just facts. Some people just can't face the facts, instead they just go with the mass mentality and the flow of the current wave.
JD Vance you should exchange your nomination you should stand for President America Need ypu!!
And well deserved ❤
What about his bitcoin holdings
Forbes picking highlights that sound good. He was a publist in Iraq. Not combat.
He should be running for president
He will in 2028.
I expect the front runners to be Vance, Byron Donald, Marco Rubio, Tim Scott, Elise Stefanik, and Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
I'm sure he will, in 2028!
Usha as in “Wo”man and “Shu”nt. Thanks.
Why does this matter?
❤ USA ❤🌎❤
ALL POLITICIANS GO IN WITH NORMAL PAY,LARGE EXPENSIVE EDUCATIONS AND WHERE SOES THE MONEY COME FROM,BIG MONEY,BIG HOMES,BIG BIG BIG,LOL,JUST A LITTLE OLD COUNTRY NOY,B.S.
see they worms have started . let’s start how much did HunterBiden receive from Chinese Mr Forbes ?
And trumpet family and friends from Russian,china ,Saudi Arabia and Korea billionaires ?insurrection pimps
In my estimation, not much!
HE DID A GOOD JOB FOR A POOR BOY ! IT IS THIS COUNTRY ANYONE CAN DO IT IN THIS COUNTRY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
👍
Do a story when he leaves the White House!
Vance Didnt learn much
Its pronounced Usha not asha just so you know. Like ursula!😊
He is also converted to Catholicism.
$10 million is still a lot of money?
Ya think he made $10mil from a book sales,lol😂😂😂😂
I totally agree with you but you need to talk less to me interested in your program
Only $10 million?
TUMP SONT pick them up unless rich,just a fact,show me one poor guy he will pick for anything
I'll see JD's uber boring portfolio (despite being a tech VC guy) and raise you Nancy's NVIDIA position....never mind the rest ofo them who went long on defense stocks in the run up to you know what...
That’s not how “Usha” is pronounced…🤦♂️That said, love JD Vance! 🇺🇸
Did he earn that in the private sector or accumulate it from unused campaign funds, corporate donors and bribes?
I don’t care how much he has…
It's u-sha, not ah-sha @forbes
While I despise his politics, his backstory is genuinely interesting and impressive.
What do you despise about his politics? Honestly asking. Economically, he's closest to Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, only with less regulation. Most people don't understand JD's politics before criticizing him. He's extremely centrist, and corporations hate him. I'm a free market pure conservative guy, so he wasn't my choice, but he genuinely cares about the US, and I'm willing to give it a shot. Reportedly, he has the highest pure IQ of anyone in Congress, so even if I disagree with him, he's brilliant.
@@M98747 where's he on abortion and israel/ukraine?
Vance is not worth anything to me. He gloms onto rich people. Any leech does that, it is how they survive.
Is that a birth mark behind his ear?
You also forgot he graduated Summa Cum Laude in those two years.
Dollar 50!
Who cares about him
Great; another f`n lawyer in our 'ruling class.' Well, at least he`s a Marine.....
He went to law school, but made most of his money as an author and investor.
Serious rags to riches story. Single mother with a heroin addiction. Saved by his grandma and the Marines. People I trust completely have met him and said he is the most genuine politician they've seen, and he cares more about working class people than anyone.
@@M98747 Thank you for sharing your insight.

🐟🐠🐡🐠🐡🐟. 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
No student loan debt despite going to Law School. Very suspicious.
He could have a handler or elite backer
the military pays for some college tuition
@@terriwhite6273 Yeah, but Yale Law School is extremely expensive and he already used it (or some of it) for his undergraduate degree.
Private schools often give extra aid to Veterans to cover higher cost, thats what happened to me at USC I payed $0 in tuition.
@@pablogarcia12343 payed?
When you’re willing to sell your soul (and body) it’s easy to get rich
Don't trust this guy one bit. He's bought by big tech and the same corporatism that destroyed his hometown. people think he's looking out for the little guy, please 🙄
His fortune sounds very vague and suspicious.
Two homes, a New York Times #1 Best seller, and he then invested his book money. $10 million. What is hard to understand?
@@M98747 Takes a lot more money than that to be a venture capitalist. How did he pay for the homes?
he worked in VC with Peter Thiel and Steve Case...his money is well invested...
@@joannsmith3589 Takes a lot of money to get into Venture Capital. Where did he get it in the first place?
Are you trying to make Vance look like some super rich multi millionaire? So what if he has 10 million dollars. I know a guy with a baseball collection worth more than that and a family whose 2nd house is worth more than that and neither of them think they are really rich. Vance is NOT some super rich guy. When he has a fortune like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos then let’s talk.
When you pass the bar exam you get a license to steal😂
J D Vance isn't worth anything!
Dirt poor to Yale? How? Why reach past a state school? This is a BS story....There is an unreported inheritance or sponsor that helped him. His first book sold 3 million, mysteriously?
Don't project your own limitations
He got special funding from his military service to attend Yale. Once at Yale made some very good connections.
Sounds like he took the lemons life doled out and made some lemonade and lemon pie to me….good on him 👏
GI Bill. My father in-law was similar. Single mother from Mexico who didn't speak English. He joined the military and has 3 master's degrees. The military is a life saver for those in poverty who have a good soul and a work ethic.
I think his fictitious background story is maid up bi VA
Dah!!!!😢
Does anyone talk about your wifes colour or nationality?
He’s worth nothing you mean how much money does he have , too much for our good
Perfect vice president 👏
