In a shocking turn of events, it has been revealed that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former White House chief medical adviser, and his wife, Christine Grady, have amassed a net worth that exceeds a whopping $11 million! It seems that retirement from his post as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases has been quite lucrative for the power couple.
According to a report from the National Institutes of Health, obtained by none other than Fox News Digital, the Faucis’ net worth saw a significant increase from around $9.54 million in 2019 to a staggering $11.5 million by the end of 2022. How did they achieve such financial success, you ask? Well, apparently, investments, awards, royalties, and compensation played a role in padding their bank accounts.
But wait, there’s more! Despite this eyebrow-raising windfall, it turns out that 2022 wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows for the Faucis. In fact, their net worth actually decreased by a cool $1.1 million compared to the previous year. Their peak net worth of $12.6 million in 2021 seems to have been a fleeting moment of financial glory.
Before his retirement, Dr. Fauci held the coveted title of the highest-paid federal employee. With an annual salary reaching nearly $481,000, he outearned even the president himself, who brought in a measly $400,000. As if that weren’t enough, the cherry on top is that Dr. Fauci is now reportedly enjoying a federal pension that competes with a presidential salary. Talk about a golden parachute!
Digging deeper into the Fauci family’s financial breakdown, it becomes clear that the lion’s share of their net worth stems from Dr. Fauci himself, with a hefty $9.25 million chillin’ in his various accounts. Meanwhile, his wife chipped in a modest $2.2 million of her own. How romantic!
According to the report, Dr. Fauci has wisely spread his earnings across trust funds, retirement funds, and college education accounts. Not content with playing it safe, he has also dabbled in the glamorous world of mutual funds. It seems that even in retirement, this medical marvel knows how to keep those financial gears turning.
Well, well, well, Dr. Fauci. It seems retirement suits you quite nicely indeed. Who knew that mask and vaccine policies could lead to such a hefty payday? One thing’s for sure: Dr. Fauci won’t be needing any stimulus checks anytime soon. Maybe we should all take a page out of his book. Or perhaps, just maybe, we should question whether this incredibly well-compensated public servant truly understands the struggles of everyday Americans. Food for thought.
