Michelle Obama net worth - The First Lady certainly has great things to say about today's economy. Despite the 400 point plunge by DOW, Michelle Obama still boasted about Obama's economy stating things are better now than before. Taking cue from the economy that has allegedly flourished, how much exactly is the First Lady's worth?

According to the Richest, Michelle Obama's net worth is at $11.8 million. Before becoming the wife of President Barack Obama, Michelle worked as a lawyer at the Sidley Austin law firm. In addition to her support for her husband's political profession, Michelle Obama works as an advocate for poverty awareness and healthy living. Forbes has ranked Michelle as the 8th powerful woman in the world.

Though Michelle Obama's net worth is one to brag about, the First Lady instead has bragged about the Obama economy.

"I don't know if you remember how bad things were back then, because sometimes we forget -- especially when things get better. By almost every economic measure, we are better off today than when Barack took office," stated the First Lady during Tom Wolf's campaign event. Wolf was a candidate running for the position of governor for Pennsylvania.

Ironically, following the First Lady's comment on the economy Dow Jones Industrial had taken a 400 point plunge. Michelle Obama's net worth has yet to take the same tumble as Dow.

In the latest move for healthy eating, Michelle Obama tweeted a video of her dancing to the beat of "Turn Down for What" with a turnip at hand. The viral video was a response to a Twitter Q&A on how many calories the First Lady burns if she turns up.

While Michelle Obama's net worth is at $11.8 million, Barack Obama's net worth is at $12.2 million. Since running for presidency, Barack Obama's net worth has reportedly risen to 438 percent.
