Just scrolled through something pretty wild about UK Prime Ministers and their bank accounts before and after taking office. The wealth changes are absolutely insane.

So here's what caught my eye - some of these guys came in relatively modest and left absolutely loaded. Tony Blair is the most obvious example, went from around $1M to $70M. That's the kind of wealth accumulation that makes you wonder what's happening behind the scenes.

But then you've got the old money crowd like Churchill and Macmillan who were already sitting on serious wealth. Churchill went from $10M to $15M, Macmillan from $15M to $20M. Not huge jumps percentage-wise, but still comfortable gains.

What's interesting is the variation in how much people actually accumulated. Margaret Thatcher jumped from $10M to $60M - that's a 6x multiplier. John Major net worth went from $1M to $6M, which is solid but nowhere near Thatcher's level. Even David Cameron managed to go from $50M to $70M, though honestly he started from a way different position.

Then there's Rishi Sunak who basically came in at $900M+ and stayed there. No real change needed when you're already that wealthy.

The most recent ones like Liz Truss and Keir Starmer show much smaller movements - Truss went from $10M to $12M, Starmer holding steady around $8M+. Maybe the scrutiny is tighter now or people are more careful about appearances.

It's a fascinating window into how being PM actually impacts personal finances. Some people clearly made serious moves after leaving office - consulting gigs, book deals, speaking engagements, that sort of thing. Others just consolidated what they already had.

Anyone else find it interesting how john major net worth trajectory compares to some of the bigger wealth jumpers? The data tells quite a story about British politics and money.
