re: Lindsey Graham at his time of death had a modest net worth

That’s not really sad, that’s about a federal employee would save up in their TSP during a career. This surprised me though, I always assumed he was banking on his forever wars

Now do his offshore accounts....
Oh wait, you can't!!!! The entire offshore banking industry isn't subject to any regulations.

You're out of date with your statement.

Since 2010 when the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) was signed into law almost all foreign financial institutions are required to report the assets of U.S. citizen account holders directly to the IRS.

Under FATCA, foreign banks, investment firms, and insurers must identify and report U.S.-owned accounts to the IRS. Institutions that fail to comply risk a 30% withholding tax on certain U.S.-sourced payments and investments.

For 71 years old a net worth of $1.4 million is kind of sad.

If this is true, I might owe Graham a bit of an apology. I always figured he was bought-and-paid-for.

Yeah he truly loved his country

What about his offshore accounts, Swiss bank accounts, safety deposit box etc.

What is his sister worth?

The article I linked says "normal" individuals between the ages of 65 and 74 have an average net worth of $1.79 million and a median net worth of $409,900.

So, Graham's net worth was below "average."

There no way that's accurate. I did a quick Google search and it said that only 7 percent of the US population has a net worth over 1 million. That seems far more accurate.

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn what you "feel."

He was a US Senator who'd achieved everything he'd hoped for. You think that the $1.4M is ""sad""??

They forgot to include is offshore accounts

Not in this case.... usually where there is smoke there is fire and why and the hell would Graham keep traveling to Ukraine? Was he Ukraine first?
