Adam Wyden blasts his senator dad

Why does he hate us / the American dream so much?!?!?!?!

Reality is: most legislators have never built anything… so I guess it’s easier to mindlessly and haphazardly try and tear stuff down.

On Twitter in early November, Wyden wrote to Elon Musk about his dad. He said, "Why does he hate us / the American dream so much? [...] Reality is: most legislators have never built anything…so I guess it’s easier to mindlessly and haphazardly try and tear stuff down."

In an interview with Squawk Box host Joe Kernen, Wyden said, "Those comments on Twitter were made a little bit tongue in cheek." He added, "I started my fund with $400,000 on the second floor of my mother's home. I've been very fortunate in life, I got my education paid for, but I built everything brick-by-brick."

Wyden says that it's clear that the lawmakers haven't experienced the ups and downs of running a business and that heightened taxation on America's wealthy combats innovation.

Prior to that, Wyden worked as a merchant banking analyst at SMH Capital and a TMT research analyst at DE Shaw. As a graduate of Columbia Business School and The Wharton School, he has been poised for success in the finance world for quite some time (especially considering that he didn't pay for school, which he mentioned).

Forbes reports that Wyden has made his investors 12 times richer in the past decade. His father's taxation beliefs will swallow those gains for himself and the other assets his fund manages.

While Wyden's $100 million isn't liquid, it does contribute to his net worth. He likely has some other assets that increase his overall net worth outside of his share of the fund. However, he's definitely worth at least $100 million.

In comparison, Senator Wyden is reportedly worth $6.9 million, which makes him the 23rd wealthiest senator.
