'My dad has never bought a stock or a bond,' says Hunter Biden. 'The only asset he had was a house'

Hunter Biden is pushing back against years of accusations that his father, former President Joe Biden, used public office for personal gain. 

“Did my dad ever, ever, ever, ever profit off the presidency? Not a single legitimate credible human being in the world has ever found any evidence of that,” Hunter said in a recent interview with “VladTV.” “They have searched high and low. Not a single one.”

‘The Only Asset He Had Was a House’

Hunter said his father made a personal decision decades ago to avoid investing in individual stocks or bonds while serving in public office.

“My dad has never bought a stock or a bond,” he said, adding that his father made that commitment after becoming a U.S. senator in 1973.

According to Hunter, the decision helped keep his father free from questions about conflicts of interest, as he spent much of his Senate career as one of the least wealthy members of Congress.

“He’s considered the poorest man in Congress for over 40 years,” Hunter told “VladTV.” “The only asset that he had was a house.”

He also said that his father’s first significant payday came only after leaving the vice presidency when he earned money through a book deal, consulting work or speaking engagements and not corporate board seats.

“The only time my dad ever made money is when he left the vice presidency. He wrote a book,” Hunter said, adding that the proceeds helped buy the Delaware beach house his father had long promised his wife.

He also said that after leaving the White House, his father has once again chosen to write a book instead of pursuing business opportunities.

Contrasting His Family With the Trumps

The interview came just days after Hunter posted a lengthy post on X accusing President Donald Trump and his family of treating the government like a “family business.”

Hunter listed defense contracts, cryptocurrency ventures and overseas investment deals that he said benefited members of the Trump family. He also contrasted those allegations with the years of investigations into his own finances.

“Me? They searched a laptop for six years,” Hunter wrote. “Federal prosecutors. Grand juries. Subpoena power. Congressional hearings. They found nothing.”

He added that while his father was president, he earned “about $200k a year selling paintings,” yet those sales still became part of a congressional impeachment inquiry.

Millions of Americans can’t afford a $1,000 emergency bill, making unexpected expenses a constant source of financial stress. That’s why many are turning to side hustles.

Instead of trying to find the next side hustle yourself, you can invest in companies that sell the “shovels.” Mode Mobile, creator of the $99 EarnPhone, lets users earn rewards for activities they already do on their phones, like reading the news, listening to music and playing games.

“Does America belong to a family?” Hunter ended the post. “They’ve given their answer. Long live the King.”

Building Wealth Across More Than Just the Market

Building a resilient portfolio means thinking beyond a single asset or market trend. Economic cycles shift, sectors rise and fall, and no one investment performs well in every environment. That’s why many investors look to diversify with platforms that provide access to real estate, fixed-income opportunities, precious metals, and even self-directed retirement accounts. By spreading exposure across multiple asset classes, it becomes easier to manage risk, capture steady returns, and create long-term wealth that isn’t tied to the fortunes of just one company or industry.

Arrived

Backed by Jeff Bezos, Arrived Homes makes real estate investing accessible with a low barrier to entry. Investors can buy fractional shares of single-family rentals and vacation homes starting with as little as $100. This allows everyday investors to diversify into real estate, collect rental income, and build long-term wealth without needing to manage properties directly.

Realberry

Institutional-quality real estate has traditionally been difficult for individual investors to access. Realberry gives accredited investors direct access to private real estate opportunities backed by a team with 35 years of experience, $3.4 billion in assets under management, and $481 million in cumulative distributions paid to investors as of Q4 2025, according to the company. With a portfolio spanning 13 million square feet across seven U.S. states, Realberry focuses on acquiring, developing, and managing real estate with an emphasis on long-term value creation while its principals often invest alongside clients to help align interests.

FarmTogether

Farmland has historically held its value through market volatility and delivered returns uncorrelated to stocks and bonds. For accredited investors, FarmTogether offers direct access to high-quality U.S. farmland starting at $15,000 — fully managed, with no landlord headaches.

Immersed

Immersed is building technology for the future of work through spatial computing. Known for its AR/VR productivity platform that enables users to work across multiple virtual screens, the company has grown to more than 1.5 million users worldwide. Immersed is also developing Visor, a lightweight headset designed specifically for professional productivity, positioning the company at the intersection of remote work, extended reality (XR), and next-generation computing.

Fundrise

Private real estate and private credit can add income and stability to a stock-heavy portfolio. Fundrise offers access to diversified private real estate and credit strategies through an easy-to-use platform, with professionally managed portfolios designed to generate passive income and long-term growth.

Mode Mobile

Mode Mobile is changing the way people interact with their phones by letting users earn money from the same apps and activities they already use every day. Instead of platforms keeping all the advertising revenue, Mode Mobile shares a portion back with users who engage with content, play games, and scroll on their devices. Named one of Deloitte’s fastest-growing software companies in North America, the company has built a large beta user base and is scaling a model that turns everyday smartphone usage into a potential income stream. 

EquityMultiple 

For accredited investors looking beyond stocks and bonds, EquityMultiple provides access to vetted commercial real estate deals starting at $5,000, with only ~5% of opportunities passing their due diligence process.
