Ann Romney: ‘I Don’t Even Consider Myself Wealthy’


By Alex Seitz-Wald/Think Progress

Apparently “Romneying” — defined as “accidentally bragging about your place high up in the economic stratosphere” — runs in the family.
His wife, Ann Romney, inexplicably talked about her wealth this afternoon during an interview on Fox News. “We can be poor in spirit, and I don’t even consider myself wealthy, which is an interesting thing, it can be here today and gone tomorrow,” she said. Watch it:
The couple made $20.9 million last year, making more in a day than an average American makes in a year, and are worth about $250 million overall.
From discussing his NASCAR team-owning friends, to saying he likes firing people, to bragging about Ann’s two Cadillacs, Mitt also has a problem with accidentally and inappropriately touting his enourmous wealth.
