Pete Buttigieg Net Worth Is Lowest Among All Democratic Candidates, Still Pays Student Loan

Pete Buttigieg’s net worth is not what a lot of people think it is. Actually, the democratic presidential candidate's net worth is one of the lowest among all candidates.

PeteButtigieg states that he lives a "middle-class lifestyle." Known as Mayor Pete to many, he recently became the topic of headlines after leading the initial returns of the Iowa caucuses this month. The result showed him with a slim 26.9 percent lead over Sen. Bernie Sanders’s 25.1 percent, per FOX Business.

Buttigieg’s net worth is around $100,000. This is even lower than what many of his critics and supporters have estimated. A large part of this amount came from his salary as mayor of South Bend, Indiana. When compared with other presidential candidates’ net worth, his treasure chest pales in comparison. In fact, Mayor Pete still pays offs his student loan until now.

Michael Bloomberg is worth around $$52.4 billion. Joining the former New York City Mayor atop the money ranking list is Democratic activist Tom Steyer who is also a billionaire. His net worth is around $1.6 billion. Andrew Yang with $1 million and Sen. Amy Klobuchar with an estimate of $1.9 million net worth.
