While the forms indicate that the candidate could be worth anywhere between $83 and $255 million, a campaign aide offered a more specific range of $190 million to $250 million. This is the same net worth that was reported for the candidate in his 2011 filings.
A review of the documents by ABC News found that Romney earned nearly $190,000 in speaker's fees in 2011, for four speeches including those at Emory University in Atlanta and at Barclay's Bank in Washington, D.C. Last year, Romney reported earning $370,000 for eight speaking engagements but maintained a far less hectic schedule as he was not campaigning full time.
Romney made anywhere from $50,000 to $100,000 in royalties from his book, "No Apology: The Case for American Greatness," a decline from last year, when he reported earning between $100,000 and $1 million from the book. As he has done in the past, Romney donated all profits from "No Apology" to six charities, including the Joey Fund (for cystic fibrosis), Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Sabin Children's Foundation, National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Jimmy Fund, and Homes for Our Troops.
