Estimated net worth (from public disclosures)
| Estimate | Report year | Low | Mid | High |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (a) Estimated net worth at the earliest available report (2013); the member entered office earlier, in 2001 | 2013 | −$7,749,971 | $148,425,014 | $304,599,999 |
| (b) Latest net worth estimate | 2025 | $135,565,034 | $327,932,517 | $520,300,000 |
| (c) Estimated gain / loss, nominal dollars, 2013 → 2025 (12 years spanned) | 2013–2025 | −$169,034,965 | +$179,507,503 | +$528,049,971 |
Gain Low = latest Low − earliest High; Gain High = latest High − earliest Low (widest possible spread); Mid = latest Mid − earliest Mid.
Reliability flags (net worth): 2013: 1 open-ended liability value(s) counted at the lower bound (understates liabilities); 2025: 1 open-ended asset value(s) (e.g. 'Over $X') counted at the lower bound (understates assets); 2025: 1 open-ended liability value(s) counted at the lower bound (understates liabilities); 2013: open-ended liability value(s) counted at lower bound; 2025: open-ended asset value(s) counted at lower bound; 2025: open-ended liability value(s) counted at lower bound; no computable net worth for year(s) inside the span: 2018, 2019, 2020. Not in the recommended dollar-gain ranking (shown only in the full list).

- What this is: Net worth = Schedule A assets (each value range at its midpoint; low–high range shown) minus Schedule D liabilities (midpoints / ranges). Low = assets at range floors minus liabilities at range ceilings; Mid = midpoints; High = assets at ceilings minus liabilities at floors. Low and High are outer bounds of the reported ranges, not likely outcomes.
- What it excludes / understates: exact values (only ranges are reported); a personal residence is not reported as an asset (although a mortgage on it may be listed as a liability, which then lowers the estimate); retirement and federal accounts (e.g. Thrift Savings Plan, defined-benefit pensions) are only partly or not reported; assets of excepted/blind trusts, cash held below reporting thresholds, vehicles, household goods and most spouse/dependent items exempt from reporting are not included; liabilities on a personal residence, revolving credit under thresholds and loans to family may be omitted by filers.
- Open-ended top ranges (e.g. “Over $50,000,000”) are counted at their lower bound and flagged, so such values are understated.
- The change is a change in estimated net worth in nominal dollars (no inflation adjustment). It includes salary, gifts, inheritances, business income and re-valuation as well as investment results, and it is subject to range-bracket noise; it is not an investment return and implies nothing about conduct.
2025 -20%
Reliability flags: few years (4); 2/4 years trading-dominated; avg traced coverage 75%; 6 unparsed value(s).
Sensitivity band for the average (all ranges at floor vs. all at ceiling, same holdings both years): +41.3% to +4.7%. This band is narrow because it moves both years together; the true uncertainty is larger — see the per-year “strict envelope” column and the limitations.
Estimated year-over-year change
Bars: midpoint estimate; whisker: same-position floor/ceiling band. Axis clipped to −100%…+150%. Years with insufficient traceable holdings are omitted.

Filings used
Each annual-report year uses one filing (most recently filed version among originals/amendments whose Schedule A row count is ≥ 40% of the largest). Electronic (text) PDFs are parsed. Scanned/image-only filings are OCR-read and used only if they pass the explicit validation gates described in the project README (value/income coverage, two-engine agreement, exact bracket snapping, page completeness, year-to-year position continuity); such years are labelled OCR-derived below. Scanned filings that fail validation are listed as “insufficient data – scanned”.

Method (summary)
- Schedule A asset rows are read from each annual report; the dollar range for each row is converted to its midpoint. Open-ended top ranges (“Over $50,000,000”) are excluded from the traced set and counted as a coverage loss.
- Positions are matched year to year by owner code (self/SP/DC/JT) + normalised asset name. A position that appears only in year t is included only if Schedule B shows a purchase of it in year t (opening value 0); a position that disappears is included only if Schedule B shows a sale (closing value 0). Otherwise it is excluded as unexplained.
- Estimated gain = (closing − opening + reported income − purchases + sale proceeds) ÷ opening, all at midpoints, for the traced positions. “Capital gains” income is not added again (it is already in value change and sale proceeds).
- A year counts only if traced opening value ≥ $50,000 and traced coverage ≥ 60% of the opening midpoint. A member is ranked only with ≥ 3 such years (exactly 2 = “limited data”, shown but unranked). Average = geometric mean of (1+yearly estimate).
Limitations
- Ranges are wide (up to a factor of 5 or more, and up to $50M+ open-ended); a holding can move between ranges without any real change in value, and stay in a range while moving materially. Yearly estimates are therefore noisy; the “strict envelope” shows the mathematical worst/best case and is typically wider than ±100%.
- Purchases and sales are only disclosed as ranges and only for transactions over $1,000; partial sales, dividend reinvestment, spousal/dependent accounts and retirement-plan funds are reported inconsistently. Excepted/blind trusts, personal residences and certain pensions are not reported at all.
- Filers sometimes change how they list assets (e.g. listing a brokerage account vs. its individual holdings), which can make positions untraceable across years; these are excluded rather than guessed.
- Asset values in an annual report are as of Dec 31 of the reporting year; the report year t−1→t covers that calendar year. Late or amended filings are used when filed; extensions can delay them.
- The text of these reports is machine-parsed from PDFs; parse errors are possible. Every number links back to the cited filing. This is not investment advice.
- Use of these filings is restricted by 5 U.S.C. § 105(c) (no unlawful, commercial or credit-rating purpose, and none for solicitation of money).
