Sanders paid over $400,000 for this ugly vinyl-sided shitbox colonial - and still owes a pile of money on it, even though he is old enough to be retired! With no savings in the bank, if he ever loses re-election to the Senate, he could be foreclosed upon! (if he didn't have such a cushy pension).
Why is Bernie so angry? He's angry because he has failed at life. Yes, he has been elected to the Senate as a Socialist from Vermont - insuring that he has little or no influence on Congress. And he's running for President of the United States, but isn't winning. Ralph Nader ran - a number of times. He's a loser, too.
Why do I say that Bernie is a failure? Look at his tax return from 2014. (why he has not released 2013 or 2015 is not clear, I suspect they might not be pretty). He made close to $200,000 a year with his salary in the Senate and his wife's business income. That's some serious bucks and clearly makes him 1%'er material - if he had bothered to save any of it.
And he's made a six-figure salary for a number of years - well over a decade - and yet still has a mortgage and no after-tax savings to speak of.
And then there are the reports of his credit-card debt - anywhere from $25,000 to $65,000 which he blames on having to pay for his niece's weddings (a man has to pay for his niece's weddings? I didn't know).
In other words, he is fiscally irresponsible.
This is the guy you want to run the country???

$200,00 makes you wealthy, maybe not 1% but up there.
>>74170842
He should redistribute some of his campaign funds into his pockets.

wat

200,000 a year salary is a lot of money. Median American wage is only like 45 grand a year.
Why do you even care? Is Hillary going to pull out or something? Do you want people to Meme Bennie out of contention to ease her putrid accention or to make way for Replacement more acceptable to the Dem establishment?
Why do you Care?

200k today makes you middle class in any populated part of the country.
Not disagreeing he is a loser though.
>>74171149
Nah, you're just a moderately richfag that doesn't know it.

His wife was dean of a college she wasn't exactly broke either. He has to dumping his cash somewhere. Caymans, Israel, some sort of offshore account. His salary alone she should be able to pay off that house is maybe five years, tops. Unless he's blowing it on coke and hookers?

American Jews tend to buy a lot of gold and jewelry and shit, then squirrel it away. They always live like they're poor though, and their homes are generally in major disrepair.
>>74171202
I live in my car, no joke.
>>74171408
Well $45k to $120k is about the lower and upper range of middle class in the US.
I'm only like an hour from his shitbox, I wonder if hes ever there.
>>74170842
hes made major renovations
check the satelite pics

Why cuck? So you can read it again on there?

It's a decent amount, but not 1% money.

I don't get it, I'm traveling around, same reason I'm in Vermont. I can freely criticize his shitty house even though I have none to call my own.

Interesting theory. The Bern is stashing away gold for the majority of his career like a Kosher Dragon.
He makes 200k a year but looks like he's living well below that.
So let's say he's stashing gold for the last 20 years. Let's assume he's he's buying gold under the table at about 100k a year. He would have amassed at least 2 million dollars. However gold has massively appreciated in the last decade (almost x5 from the late 1990s) so he could have at least 4-5 million dollars in gold somewhere in his shitbox mansion.
That raised garden looks suspicious to me.
>>74171098
This. Can you say offshore accounts?
>>74172053
If Bernie is a failuer for having a shitty house what does that make you?
Nah senpai
>>74170842
You need to make over 500k a year to be in the 1%
>>74170842
Look at that fucking mansion, that shit would be like 2 mill in keknada.
>>74170842
I saw him at the DMV in Burlington back in 2006, dude was driving an early 90s toyota tercel.
>>74170842
>200k

Middle class is the rich elite now?
>>74171077
$200,000 for like 20 years makes you pretty wealthy if you aren't fiscally illiterate.
>>74170842
I heard he now literally lives in a sewer. Is this true, pol?
>>74173458
That's upper middle class, and most people would be able to save that money, maybe he puts it all in an IRA and by the time he's eighty he's going to leave the Senate with 10 million dollars.
>>74173664
Can confirm sewer rat, but your thinking of Cruz.
>>74173591
This is my point. If you can't even manage your own finances, what hope do you have for the country's finances?
His wife is an interesting person as well. While President of Burlington College, she expanded the campus by a factor of four - and nearly drove the college into bankruptcy. I am not sure what she is doing today, but they are showing about $5000 a year income from her "business" whatever that is. Perhaps these are book royalties or something.

Holy shit what the fuck do these people do with their money?

Nice meme
200k a year isn't 1% in the US but It's definitely top 5%
Rich people are literally delusional about their income. Every single study done on income percentiles and perceptions shows that people in the top of society consistently underestimate their wealth. The reasoning they theorise behind this perceived 'no really I'm actually still middle class even though I'm in the top 10% of the country statistically speaking' mind set is that most rich people are just as fiscally irresponsible and just end up blowing all their money on the same shit as the working class, but they buy the expensive premium versions.

Haha she was the one running Burlington college into the ground? That place got so much better the instant she got the boot.

Pick one and only one
>>74174029
Yeah, with a 6 figure income he could have easily invested in some dividend paying stocks over the years to make a decent side income, he could have benefited from some collective ownership actually.

Is this your first meme m9?

Blow it all on dumb shit and blame everyone else.
