Antony Blinken – $10 million

The American diplomat Antony Blinken enjoyed Donald Trump’s presidency to explore his opportunities in the private sector and build his $10-million fortune. He was a CNN collaborator for about six months and collected a reported salary of $22K in the meantime.

In 2021, Blinken returned to the position he used to hold under President Barack Obama. When Joe Biden assumed office in January, Blinken was named the 71st United States Secretary of State. Known for his policies on the Middle East (particularly Iran’s nuclear program), he co-founded the consulting firm WestExec Advisors in 2017.
