What is the net worth of Unites States Vice President JD Vance?
Vice President of the United States, JD Vance, is in New Delhi with his family and will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday evening, an engagement that comes under the shadow of Donald Trump's reciprocal tariffs.
JD Vance's India trip will be focused on cultural engagements with talks on ongoing trade negotiations with India. Currently serving as the 50th Vice President of the US, Vance is the youngest VP since Nixon.
Vance has an estimated net worth of $10 million according to a November 2024 report by Forbes. His net worth increased after his book 'Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis' sold more than three million copies.
In 2017, Vance moved to Ohio and started an organisation to fight the opioid epidemic called ' Our Ohio Renewal'. This organisation raised $220,000 in 2017. Meanwhile, his wife also bought a $1.4 million home in Cincinnati, which Forbes estimated to be worth $1.8 million in 2024. According to the National Taxpayers Union Foundation (NTFU) website, JD Vance receives an annual salary of $235,100 as the Vice President of the US.
Additionally, he also owns venture holdings and liquid assets of somewhere between $3 million and $10 million, according to Forbes.
Growing up, Vance faced financial struggles and family instability. Due to his mothers's struggle with addiction and his father's absence, he became closer to his grandparents. After graduating from Middletown High School, he served his country in the US Marine Corps for four years. Upon returning, he attended Ohio State University and enrolled in Yale Law School. In January 2025, he was elected as the Vice President at the age of 40.
This is JD Vance's first official visit to India. Scheduled for four days, he is visiting with his wife, Usha Vance and three children- Ewan, Vivek, and daughter Mirabel.

The delegation, led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, was on the last leg of a multi-nation tour to brief key interlocutors about Operation Sindoor that India launched in retaliation to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives. The delegation was one of the seven multi-party delegations India had tasked to visit 33 global capitals to reach out to the international community to emphasise Pakistan's links to terrorism. The group arrived in the U.S. capital on June 3 and over the course of three days held a wide array of meetings on Capitol Hill as well as in Washington, briefing American government officials as well as lawmakers about India's stance on cross-border terrorism. The Indian team met Vice President Vance, Mr. Landau, House Foreign Affairs Committee (HFAC) leadership, India Caucus leadership and Senate Foreign Relations Committee leaders. It also held meetings and interactions with a host of U.S. Congressmen, think tanks, policy experts, media as well as members of the Indian-American community.

Jai Hind". सौ बार जन्म लेंगे तो सौ बार करेंगे जी भर के अपने वतन से प्यार करेंगे जो हम से बन पड़ा, "अ वतन" हमने किया है जो सच था, सारी दुनिया ने अब जान लिया है समस्त सदस्यों की तरफ से मातृभूमि का और देश विदेश में हिंदुस्तान प्रेमियों का बहुत-बहुत आभार जिन्होंने कान खोल कर सुना और दिल खोल कर… — Shashi Tharoor (@ShashiTharoor) June 8, 2025 On the last day of the delegation's scheduled meetings, the delegation paid homage to Mahatma Gandhi at his statue opposite the Indian Embassy here.
