PFD Networth Growth Beats Market

What this detector measures

Senator's net-worth CAGR exceeds S&P 500 (~10%) by ≥3pp — sustained outperformance is statistically rare and warrants journalist review.

What to ask the senator's office

1. What asset categories drove the above-market growth — equity, business-deal, real-estate, inheritance, spousal income?
2. Did the senator's committee assignments change during the high-growth years in ways that benefited specific sectors?
3. Has the senator publicly disclosed the growth methodology, or only the PFD bracket-midpoint estimate?
