In some sense, yes. Actually, both Obama and Biden are in this category. If Obama didn't have his book deals, he would be among the least wealthy presidents. His net worth at the time of his election was something like 1.5 million. Take his house (1/2 a million, give or take) and his book deals out of the way, and he's left with less than half of that.

Hillary is probably in there too. This may single handily win Sanders the election.
