Exactly, McConnell went from being worth $3 million ("wealthy" by average American standards, but certainly not super rich) to being worth $30 million in a decade (he even had a great 2008 when almost nobody did) AND he managed to do all of this with a salary of just under $200K a year.

This is a guy who has worked for the state or federal government for pretty much his entire career and he's been in the Senate for 30 years. A net worth of $3 million for someone in their 60s making $200K a year is probably about average to high average, a net worth of $30 million for someone in that income bracket is all but unheard of.
