Personal Gain Index

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:
PGI: Change in net worth
Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Rooney's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $41,385,465 and $87,244,445. That averages to $64,314,955, which is higher than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $6,956,438.47. Rooney ranked as the 9th most wealthy representative in 2012.[122] Between 2007 and 2012, Rooney's calculated net worth[123] percentage increase was not meaningful as the initial average net worth (-$37,097) was less than or equal to zero. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[124]
Thomas Rooney Yearly Net Worth | |
---|---|
Year | Average Net Worth |
2007 | $−37,097 |
2012 | $64,314,955 |
Growth from 2007 to 2012: | N/A |
Average annual growth: | N/A |
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[125] |
The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.
PGI: Donation Concentration Metric
Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Rooney received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Retired industry.
From 2007-2014, 23.57 percent of Rooney's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[126]
