$250 Million Fortune … But Romney Wife Says “I Don’t Even Consider Myself Wealthy”

Mitt Romney is probably the richest person to ever run for President in American history, but his wife Ann told Fox News on Monday that “I don’t even consider myself wealthy.”

Speaking on the conservative news network Romney appeared to downplay her family’s wealth, estimated to be as much as $250 million. “We can be poor in spirit, and I don’t even consider myself wealthy, which is an interesting thing,” she said. “It can be here today and gone tomorrow.”

Based on available reports, the Romney fortune is still very much here today. Mitt Romney recently bragged in Detroit that his wife “drives a couple of Cadillacs” while he owns a couple of cars for himself.

In August of 2011 it was revealed that Romney planned to increase the size of his $12 million vacation mansion in La Jolla, CA from 3,009 square feet to 11,062 square feet.

Romney also owns another vacation home in New Hampshire, and a town house near Boston.
