There are currently 18 candidates and counting vying for the Democratic presidential nomination - and they all come from markedly different financial backgrounds.
Rep. Eric Swalwell of California, for example, has been open about being part of the growing ranks of millennials with a negative net worth due to student loan debt.
Other contenders, like former Reps. John Delaney and Beto O'Rourke, are highly wealthy either from success in the private sector or family inheritances. And most other candidates fall somewhere in between.
The 13 Democratic candidates who have recently run for federal office or served in Congress or another federal government position have filed personal financial disclosure forms listing their assets and liabilities.
But because members are only required to report those figures in wide ranges, we don't know the specific net worth of most of the candidates.
And for others who haven't recently filed any formal financial disclosures or released tax returns, we only have limited information about their salaries and assets.
Here's everything we know about the net worth and personal finances of every 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, thanks to data collected by the Center for Public Integrity and the Center for Responsive Politics.
