Anthony Weiner has an estimated net worth of $750 thousand. Although he didn’t come from a political or powerful family, New York City is in Anthony Weiner’s blood. After spending his toddler years in a Rochdale Village Mitchell-Lama housing unit, Anthony was raised in his birthplace of Brooklyn and now lives in Queens. The son of a public school teacher, and the product of our public schools, he graduated from Brooklyn Technical High School in 1981 and SUNY Plattsburgh in 1985.
A true product of New York’s hardworking middle class, Anthony Weiner knows the challenges most families face and has worked hard to make sure that all New Yorkers get a shot at a good life.
After college, he went to work for then-Congressman Charles Schumer, and, after more than six years working for Chuck in Washington and at home in Brooklyn, Anthony launched a long-shot bid for the City Council. He didn’t have as much money as the other candidates in the field and he was opposed by the political power brokers, but he inspired his neighbors with his campaign based on “no promises – just hard work.” Anthony Weiner won a six-way primary and a four-way general election to become – at the time – the youngest person ever elected to the City Council.
Weiner married Huma Abedin, a longtime personal aide of Hillary Clinton, on July 10, 2010. Former president Bill Clinton officiated the wedding. Weiner proposed to Abedin on May 23, 2009.
