this article says washington's estate was worth like $15mm in today's dollars but in percentile terms or something that is like having $450mm today. so seems like a BS list:

Yeah, it's inflation adjusted, but even having the 2014 equivalent of $98 million should have been beyond Johnson's reach.

in the case of washington, it's not just inflation adjusted, it's adjusted to be the relative wealth percentile or something like that. which is pretty useless.

Truman was a fucking paragon of integrity...but not much money to be made in that

'Then 35 and without a firm station in civilian life, he opened a haberdashery shop in Kansas City in association with Edward Jacobson, an Army buddy. At the start, business was excellent, but the postwar depression changed all that, and Truman & Jacobson were obliged to close. Jacobson went through bankruptcy proceedings; Truman did not, and he was still paying off his creditors (the total was $28,000) 10 years later when he was a Senator.'

not every guy gets rich off those. there's a career progression, and you can opt into a dirty role like cook county sheriff if you're Chicago Machine, to enrich yourself when It's Time. downside is you become ineligible for "higher" offices once you take down that money train. Richard J Daley almost went the money route, til the mayor role fell in his lap, and anyway some guys are really into exercising the bureaucratic levers in office, more than having $$$ itself

he did. In fact thats one of the reasons people speculate he didn't free his slaves like Washington did (at Martha's death). They must mean while in office. Also, those figures going back that far are pretty shit. none of our early aristocracy would have made the forbes list at that time. they were 3rd rate compared to Europeans, who would then be worth trillions???

elite american planters were wealthy as fuck compared to second/third-tier euro aristocrats. there were a fuckload of minor aristocracy who headed off the caribbean to try and rebuild the family fortune. for example alexander hamilton's dad was the son of a scottish lord who tried to make it in the world of people and things and sugarcane but fucked it up and died penniless.
