Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is an independent candidate for the US presidency. He is running for the White House with Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. In this article, however, I will take a closer look at his net worth.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who exactly?
Robert is a descendant of the famous Kennedy family. He is an environmental lawyer by profession. He also heads an anti-vaccination organization that has been particularly active during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Kennedys have been involved in politics for generations, their rise to power beginning with Robert’s grandfather, Joseph, who made his fortune in the stock market.
As reported by ForbesRobert’s net worth is $15 million. It consists of real estate that he owns with his wife and, as we recently learned, bitcoins.
I’ll add right away that $15 million is not much. Of course not for the average Smith. The point is that the family trust fund of the entire family is valued at $1.2 billion. Or at least that’s what he valued it at. Forbes.
Robert’s share of the family’s inherited assets is said to be worth about $4 million and includes co-ownership of Wolf Point, a sprawling Chicago property that includes luxury apartments and office space. He also owns real estate in the famed Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts (valued at about $3 million). He and his wife own a home in Los Angeles that is estimated to be worth $7 million.
In addition, the presidential candidate was supposed to have about $500,000 in stocks, private equity, and hedge funds managed by the Kennedy family’s Park Financial Holdings. In addition, there are shares in Arctic Royalty, a company that operates in the oil and gas market in Oklahoma and Texas. Thanks to the latter, he was supposed to earn between $17,759 and $29,257 in the first half of 2023.
Late last year, Kennedy sold most of his stake in Arctic Royalty.
Bitcoins
You’re probably curious about whether Kennedy owns any bitcoins. He admitted in 2023 that he bought BTC for his children. Now, during Bitcoin 2024, he added that he had invested a lot of money in cryptocurrencies. He didn’t say how much, but he explained that “most of his wealth is in bitcoin.”
During this conference, he promised that as president, he would add bitcoin to the Fed’s reserve. The US would buy 550 BTC per day. In total, he would like the country to have 4 million BTC.
