Harlem Désir tops annual list of highest-paid politicians
In 2022 it looked like the politician’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Saturday (November 23) that Désir is the highest-paid politician in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $60 million lead over his closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The French politician has an estimated net worth of $275 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Désir Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Paris Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderdésir - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Harlem) and a fashion line called “Harlem Désir Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Harlem fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
