Singh had an actual legal career before politics. But his wealth is mostly family money.
Really, of all the four men, Carney is the only one where it can be genuinely said that the majority of his wealth is neither taxpayer money derived, nor family money. I'm fairly sure his School Principal father didn't leave him millions. And I'm fairly sure being a Central Banker doesn't pay nearly as much as Goldman Sachs or Brookfield.
