What is the net worth of Mike Waltz?

Mike Waltz, the 29th National Security Advisor of the U.S. who was elected just as soon as Trump started his second term in office in January 2025, has been removed from his post. " U.S. President Donald Trump ousted his national security adviser Mike Waltz on Thursday and named Secretary of State Marco Rubio as his interim replacement in the first major shakeup of Trump's inner circle since he took office in January," Reuters said in a report.
Trump, in a social media post, said he would nominate Waltz to be the next U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, adding that "he has worked hard to put our nation's interests first."
Waltz was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2018, representing Florida's 6th congressional district. He served from 2019 until 2025. During this time he was known for his strong stance on national security and foreign policy.

Beyond his public service, Waltz has been active in the private sector. He co-founded Metis Solutions, a defense contracting firm that secured substantial contracts in Afghanistan. In 2020, Metis was acquired by PAE for $92 million, from which Waltz reportedly realized capital gains ranging from $5 million to $25 million. Additionally, Waltz co-founded Askari Associates, an international strategic consulting firm. His investment portfolio includes real estate holdings and financial assets such as ETFs and cryptocurrencies.
