Hassan Rouhani tops annual list of highest-paid political figures

In 2022 it looked like the political figure’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (November 20) that Rouhani is the highest-paid political figure in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $40 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 Iranian political figure has an estimated net worth of $215 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 Rouhani Burger” chain) in Tehran, a Football Team (the “Sorkheh Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderouhani - Iran), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Hassan) and a fashion line called “Hassan Rouhani Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Hassan fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
