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.

'Usha: hysterical laughter': JD Vance's Les Miserables joke called 'cringe'
JD Vance attended the show of Les Miserables with Usha Vance. Before joining President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump for a performance of 'Les Misetrables' at the Kennedy Center Wednesday evening, Vice President JD Vance could not stop cracking a theater joke which, according to social media users, did not land, and only sounded cringeworthy. "About to see Les Misérables with POTUS at the Kennedy Center. Me to Usha: so what's this about? A barber who kills people? Usha; (hysterical laughter) That's apparently a different thing called Sweeney Todd" This was the post that JD Vance made and social media users asked whether it was ironic that he pretended that he had no idea about Les Miserables, which is a story of social injustice and rebellion -- at a time when Los Angeles is witnessing riots. "Jesus Christ this is so cringe," one user posted. MAGA supporters did not like that the VP's joke did not land and they defended JD Vance's sense of humor emphasizing that there is nothing to understand, it's only to laugh. "It's called a sense of humor. Very difficult for the left to achieve with all that anger exhibited," one wrote. "We finally have a VP with a sense of humor and they (pres and vp) have been dragged there by their wives," another wrote. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo "Usha was laughing AT you. Not with you," one wrote. Les Misérables cast members were offered the option to sit out the show on the night of Trump's attendance and many did that. "I couldn't care less," Donald Trump said reacting to the rebuff of the cast members. "All I do is run the country well." 'There's no inflation. People are happy. People are wealthy. The country is getting back to strength again,' said Trump, who was accompanied on the red carpet by Melania. 'That's what I care about.' Loud boos could be heard from the audience as Trump waved from the presidential box, there were also cheers and a chant of 'USA! USA!' There was applause earlier for several drag queens as they arrived at the event. A group of drag performers attended in protest after some attendees gave up their tickets following Trump's shakeup.
