What does $760,000 for Hillary from Goldman Sachs mean?

The Clintons are probably worth $150 million or more.
The $760,000 is pocket change for the lady who campaigns on income inequality, of which she is very knowledgeable.
I would add GS's 71K is a small fraction of Cruz's 40 million dollar PACs.
AH, yes, Hillary & Ted....getting big bucks form Goldman....
This is the little cabal that worries me since LAWYERS give 70% to DEMOCRATS.
Each cycle, contributions from this group of Lawyers favor Democrats by a significant margin. In the 2014 election cycle, the industry contributed over $120 million to federal political candidates and interests, 70 percent of which went to Democrats. https://www.opensecrets.org/industries/recips.php?cycle=2016&ind=K01
