Net worth fell from $486,240 (2022) to $200,000 (2023) — 2.4×

This 2023 filing reports $200,000; the same person's 2022 filing reported $486,240, a change of $286,240 in 1 year. Inheritances, home values and markets can move net worth a lot, so compare what's listed in each year to see where the change shows up.

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

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $200,000; listed items add up to $156,951

Reported net worth: $200,000. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $156,951. 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 Income & business ties

85% of listed income ($98,743) comes from Manatee County Goverment

Listed income totals $116,212 from 3 sources. The largest is classed as government & public payroll.

What to check
  • Who is this source, and does it have business before the office sought?
  • If the filer owns it, check the business section and secondary income.
