Senate Candidate Dr. Oz Reveals $100 – $400 Million Personal Fortune. Would Make Him One Of The Very Richest Members Of Congress

When you run for a major public office position (Senate, House of Reps, President) in the United States, you are required to submit a public financial disclosure to clear up any potential conflicts of interest. Normally these disclosures are pretty bland since most people running for Congress are typically middle-class public servants who own very modest assets. On the other hand, when a celebrity runs for office, we get to see some really juicy financial revelations.

Celebrity medical expert turned Senate candidate Dr. Oz (full name: Mehmet Oz) recently filed his public financial disclosure. According to his financial disclosure, Dr. Oz and his wife Lisa control assets that are valued between…

$104 million to $422 million

Using that range, if Oz is elected to the Senate, he’d easily be one of the wealthiest members of Congress. If the high end of his estimate is accurate, he may be THE richest member of Congress.

The reason there’s such a wide range is because candidates are allowed to use a wide range when they are valuing their assets. But we do know that at a MINIMUM Dr. Oz and his wife Lisa own $104 million worth of assets. An impressive portfolio for a TV doctor.

Where Does Dr. Oz Live?

Dr. Oz was born in Cleveland, Ohio. He went to high school in Delaware then got an undergraduate degree from Harvard. He did live in Pennsylvania while earning his MD and MBA from the University of Pennsylvania. Upon graduating from med school he moved to New York City to set up a practice and eventually become a TV star.
