She picked Tim

Regarding Walt’s career as unsuccessful is weird.

One could expect at least one or two bankrupted casinos by this point.

Minnesota teacher pension fund appears to have issues. Surplus turned to deficit, extra taxes on people’s retirement savings. Bringing those things to America is the plan.

No, but it is suggestive that he may not be capable of being a president, if he has almost no assets at age 60. Someone who is not capable of managing their own finances well, is unlikely to be an effective or competent vice president. I am very concerned about this detail as it reflects poorly on his judgement and mental abilities. We need people that are vice president to be very accomplished and much more capable than the average person. Some random guy off the street with no assets and minimal career accomplishments clearly does not have the work-ethic or mental ability required to be vice president.

Yes, it is ridiculous how bad his finances are given that he is running for VP. That says one of two things. 1) He consistently makes poor financial decisions or 2)He is not very capable and did not have a successful career. Both of these explanations should be disqualifying for someone that is a heart beat away from the presidency.

You guys have just gotten boring. How long do you think this attack will last before it fizzles out? 12 hours? A full day?

I am actually going to vote for Harris, because I think trump is worse, but he is clearly not someone exceptional that is capable of being a good vice president. Just pointing this out. Walz clearly has very poor decision making skills or he would be in a better place financially right now

Why? How much money should he have given his career path?

He was a congressman for 12 years and governor for 5 years and he has basically nothing in his retirement savings or assets? He has earned around 2 million in income since 2007 not including his wife's job and has very little to show for it. It just does not make sense and suggest very poor judgment.

And Trump was given $400 million and can’t pay basic contractors amounts like $10,000. Fraud!!

[Anonymous]

Didn't Vance say VP does not matter? Why all the attention on Walz here? Jealous?

Your guy has had multiple bankruptcies.

He’s a convicted felon.

I’m sorry but a guy in a public sector job with two kids, one a recent college graduate, not amassing vast wealth doesn’t bother me. It’s weird you think it should.

Hey - Tim's an all-around great guy no doubt about it. Heck, I'm sure even Harris is a good person too.

But here's the thing - I don't care about Walz's personal finances, I don't care about his former military career, I don't care what he does or doesn't do in his personal life.

I only care about his "resume" for the role of VP. What skills does he bring to the White House? Could he go head-to-head with a foreign dignitary? What policies and/or EOs will he be supporting?

Same goes for Harris.
Same goes for the other side too.

I don't give a rat's ass about their personal life. I want to know what they are going to actually DO for the people of the United States of America.

Let's do some math?

2 million over 17 years is about 120,000 per year.
After taxes/FICA, let's say his take home is 75% of gross, or 90K per year
He has 2x 529 plans for his children
He had a mortgage until he was governor
He probably had housing he needed to pay for, in DC while he was a congressman
He probably contributed to his pension plans

Just exactly how much money do you think they should have saved with a take home of 90K a year, and two kids to educate, one of whom is special needs?

His wife has a job too. He could have slept in his office like many of the other representatives. Just bad money decisions all around.

You're not answering the question. Let's add her salary too.

How much money do you think someone whose gross take home pay is $135K, who has two kids to educate, one of whom is special needs, be saving? How much money does a family of 4 need to live on?

But the accounting we have doesn't list the pension amounts, does it?

He has nothing he needed to disclose. He has plenty in pensions which don’t need to be disclosed. Ditto for his wife.

We don't know what's in his retirement accounts because he wasn't required to disclose that. Retirement accounts are structured to be well diversified so there aren't any political risks with them.
