Chelsea Clinton was born on 27 February 1980, in Little Rock, Arkansas, and is mainly known to people who are interested in politics, as she is the daughter of former US President, Bill Clinton, and former US Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Chelsea is now a part of the Clinton Global Initiative and Clinton Foundation.
So just how rich is Chelsea Clinton, as of mid-2017? Authoritative sources estimate that Chelsea’s net worth is over $15 million, earned mostly from her career in the finance industry over the last dozen or so years.
Chelsea Clinton Net Worth $20 Million
When Chelsea Victoria Clinton was born her father was already the Governor of Arkansas, then in 1993 was elected US President, so Chelsea had nothing like a normal childhood, as with her family she moved into the White House, although both her parents tried to protect Chelsea from the attention of the media as much as they could. Clinton attended the private Sidwell Friends School, after which she studied at Stanford University, from where she graduated with a degree in history in 2001. Chelsea then continued her studies for a Master of Philosophy degree at the University of Oxford, completing it in 2003.
Clinton soon started to work at management consulting firm McKinsey & Company, which was Chelsea’s first independent salaried position, establishing her net worth. Three years later Chelsea became a part of the global investment firm “Avenue Capital Group”, and became a member of IAC’s board of directors, and the School of American Ballet’s board. In 2011 Chelsea received an invitation to work at NBC, and appeared in such shows as “Rock Center with Brian Williams” and “NBC Nightly News”. Despite the success she had while working at NBC, Chelsea left the network in 2014, but the job certainly had a significant impact on the growth of her net worth, reputedly having a salary of 600,000 dollars.
The following year, Chelsea published her first book – “It’s Your World: Get Informed, Get Inspired and Get Going!”, aimed at introducing middle school students to social issues. This effort has also added to Chelsea’s net worth.
Meantime, Chelsea was involved in her mother’s presidential campaign in 2008, traveling the country and talking about her mother’s candidacy, which gave her greater exposure to politics and gained popularity too. Her subsequent involvement in Hillary’s 2016 campaign was therefore no new experience, although the result was the same.
Currently, Chelsea has a prominent role in the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, of which she is a board member, and gives paid speeches and presentations, the proceeds of which go to the Foundation.
In her personal life, Chelsea has been married to Marc Mezvinsky since 2010; they have a son and a daughter and reside in Manhattan, New York City.
