Ron DeSantis’ Financial Growth: Net Worth Surges to Over $2 Million in 2024

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has experienced a notable financial boost in 2024, achieving a nearly 18% increase in his net worth, which now stands at $2,087,550 as of December 31, 2024. This surge, up from $1,773,157 at the close of 2023, can be largely attributed to the continued success of his book deal.

The Impact of DeSantis’ Book Deal

DeSantis has secured significant earnings from his book, The Courage to Be Free: Florida’s Blueprint for America’s Revival. Released in February 2023 in alignment with his presidential campaign launch, the book has generated:

  • $625,500 from HarperCollins Publishers LLC in 2024, mirroring 2023’s earnings.
  • $1.25 million received in 2022.

This represents the third consecutive year that DeSantis has benefited financially from the memoir, propelling his net worth from just $318,986 in 2021 to over $2 million in 2024.

Breakdown of DeSantis’ Financial Disclosure

Income and Assets

As mandated by Florida law, state elected officials, including DeSantis, are required to file annual financial disclosures by July 1 each year, detailing their income, assets, and liabilities. According to the latest report:

  • Total Assets:

    [link-whisper-related-posts]
    • USAA checking and savings accounts: $573,109
    • Savings with Interactive Brokers: $1.31 million
    • Thrift Savings Plan: $99,803
    • Florida Retirement System: $116,859
  • Income Sources:
    • Salary from the state: $141,400
    • Additional earnings from HarperCollins.

Liabilities

DeSantis reported a single liability of $15,095 in student loan debt. Notably, he lives at the governor’s mansion and did not disclose any real estate holdings.

Comparisons with Other Florida Officials

DeSantis is not alone in experiencing financial growth. Other Florida officials have also reported significant increases in net worth:

  • Wilton Simpson, State Agriculture Commissioner, saw his net worth rise to $19,775,803, up from $16,903,558 in 2023, largely due to newly reported assets.

  • Ashley Moody, former Attorney General, reported a slight decline in net worth to $4,426,804.

  • Jimmy Patronis, former Chief Financial Officer, showed an increase to $9.25 million.

  • Jeanette Nuñez, former Lieutenant Governor and now President of Florida International University, reported a net worth of $2.45 million, indicating upward movement from $2.086 million in 2023.

Conclusion

Ron DeSantis’ financial ascent in 2024 underscores the significant influence of his publishing success, amidst the broader context of financial growth among Florida officials. With the state’s political landscape continually evolving, these financial disclosures provide insight into the wealth status of key figures in the Sunshine State.

For those interested in following the financial journeys of political figures, further details can be found in their respective financial disclosure reports.
