Something doesn't seem right to me. He's making a $220K salary and so should have more to show for it than $15k in his 401(k) and less than $50k in savings.

I'm roughly the same age as him and I'm also married with two children. I would be very nervous if I only had $15K in my retirement account. It's in fact very close to seven figures and I worry sometimes that even that is not going to be enough.

But, I think he'll be fine. There's a lot of perks to being a Supreme Court justice than just salary.

He’s got his kids in Catholic school, which is no longer a cheap proposition. And as a dedicated Catholic family, they probably use their envelopes every Sunday.

Not sure if wife has job outside the home.

I don’t think he has to show all of his financial interests.

He has two kids in private school ( some parochial schools are rather expensive ) and there's no mention of what his home ( homes? ) is worth.

But yes, his savings and 401K are a bit thin.

We have put three kids through private school in lieu of saving as much as we would have wished. Worth it in our view.
