Boris Johnson net worth: Prime Minister has made a staggering fortune from career
Throughout his career, Boris Johnson has dabbled in journalism, writing books, legislating policy, representing London as mayor, as well as being involved in several political controversies. From getting stuck on a zip wire in 2012 to his frequent verbal splurges of Latin, the Prime Minister has made a fortune.
Boris Johnson’s net worth is reported to be £1.6million according to Celebrity Net Worth.
As Prime Minister, Boris earns £79,496 and an additional £81,392 for being an MP.
This totals to an annual net income of £160,888, which means he is one of the top 1 percent of earners in the UK.
Before his role as Prime Minister, Boris earned up to £275,000 a year for his weekly column in The Daily Telegraph.
When taking on the role of Prime Minister, he had to relinquish this position.
In addition to his earnings, Boris is also the proprietor of substantial financial assets.
He owns properties in Oxfordshire, Exmoor and recently bought a house in South London for a reported £1.3million with his wife Carrie Symonds.
Life beyond Number 10, former UK Prime Ministers are entitled to an allowance of £115,000 a year.
Should Boris follow in his predecessor’s footsteps, he can expect to enjoy lucrative book deals and speaker events.
