The obvious question to me is, what did he do with his money?

He sold his house for $300k when he moved into the governor's mansion four yars ago, but he didn't keep the money from the sale? He has an upper middle class salary, but no savings?

Either he's got a bunch of credit card debt to pay off or a drug habit, or he keeps his savings in cash under his mattress. But money doesn't just vanish like that.

Walz’s financial disclosure as governor does not list the value of any cash kept in bank accounts.

Regular bank accounts are explicitly not part of the report. Therefore he most likely just did not spend it on anything.
