What to check
  • Compare the assets listed in each filing: which items are new or much larger?
  • Does listed income explain the change?

Context 3

Context Unusual reporting

“Mutual Funds” ($141,000) doesn't name the institution

Intangible assets should name the entity they relate to.

What to check
  • Which bank, company or fund is this?

Rule: Asset without a named institution
“Do not list simply "stocks and bonds" or "bank accounts."”2023 Form 6 instructions, Assets (quote not found in this year's instructions) · how this rule works

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $3,464,600; listed items add up to $3,797,776

Reported net worth: $3,464,600. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $3,797,776. A difference is normal: net worth also counts assets and debts that aren't listed individually (items under $1,000, credit cards, taxes), and the instructions say subtracting listed liabilities from listed assets won't give an accurate figure in most cases.

What to check
  • No action needed unless other items look off.

Context Wealth & holdings

Reports a net worth of $3,464,600 — a millionaire on paper

Net worth is the filer's own figure. Being wealthy isn't a problem; it's context for comparing candidates and for reading the rest of the form.

What to check
  • Compare with the other candidates in the race.
  • Check that the large assets below are described and valued clearly.
