Florida governor Ron DeSantis is estimated to have a net worth of more than $1.17 million. The reason for this is partly because of his advance from Harper Collins for his second book The Courage to be Free.
Ron DeSantis declared an income of $1,250,000 in his 2022 statement for the book advance and $141,400 for his salary as a governor.
The Republican presidential candidate is worth $1,734,331.07 as of December 31, 2022.
Ron and Retirement Account
DeSantis has savings of $54,720.58 in a Florida Retirement System account and an additional $91,719.79 in a federal Thrift Savings Plan account. He also has $1,046,516.36 in checkings and savings accounts.
His net worth is relatively modest compared to his predecessor Sen Rick Scott, who is a former health care executive. Scott had a net worth of a whopping $255 million.
DeSantis often plays up his ‘blue collar roots and in fact does not even own a home after selling his house in Ponte Vedra Beach in 2019. He grew up in middle class Florida suburbia as the son of a nurse and a Nielsen box installer.
During his book tour before he said he would run for president. DeSantis had said. “And so my book, I think it’s out there, just so you know, No 1 book in America for nonfiction. There’s a lot of people that aren’t happy about that, I can tell you.”
