Nobody called him Abe--at least not to his face--because he
loathed the nickname. It did not befit a respected professional
who'd struggled hard to overcome the limitations of his frontier
background. Frankly Lincoln enjoyed his status as a lawyer
and politician, and he liked money, too, and used it to
measure his worth. By the 1850's, thanks to a combination of
talent and sheer hard work, Lincoln was a man of substantial
wealth. He had an annual income of around $5,000--the
equivalent of many times that today--and large financial and
real-estate investments.
When we think of Abraham Lincoln, the image of
a wealthy lawyer is not the first that comes to
mind. A man, who worked hard, struggled and
came from a less than ideal background is often
the picture we invoke. However, it is an
incomplete portrait. Mr. Lincoln was successful
both professionally and financially even by
today's standards.
