Many public polls revealed John Fitzgerald “Jack” Kennedy, often referred to as JFK, as one of America’s favorite presidents. Over 55 years after his tragic assassination, JFK remains one of history’s most fascinating political figures. The Kennedys are a powerful and elite family, and JFK was born into great wealth and prestige. The Kennedy’s family estate was worth approximately $2 billion, but JFK did not inherit his father’s fortune. Instead, his money came from a shared trust fund, and his personal net worth was estimated at $10 million. His wife, Jackie, was also a wealthy oil heiress who brought new art and furniture to the White House. JFK is one of the few people who didn’t get into politics for money. Instead, he donated his entire congressional and presidential salary to charity. After his death, his black alligator Hermès briefcase which he carried with him everywhere, including the day of his assassination, was auctioned and sold for more than $700,000.
