Historically, the Foundation has not had the resident capacity to raise these funds annually; To raise the more than $120 million the Foundation has used to operate since 2001 Justin and I have helped to raise the majority of the funds. Since 2006, approximately $6-11 million of the Foundations operating costs have been covered by net proceeds from CGI ($46 million total to date). CGI and our fundraising efforts have generated sufficient funds to establish a quasi endowment, which today stands at $18 or so million. Since 2003, we have developed strategies to raise the approximately $6-10 million a year gap between the net proceeds from CGI and our annual operating budget. This gap is largely funded through direct solicitations by Justin and me, some through speeches the President gives on behalf of the Foundation, through events, finding partners throughout the world to donate if we attend there dinner or event, auctions and so on.
Independent of our fundraising and decision-making activities on behalf of the Foundation, we have dedicated ourselves to helping the President secure and engage in for-profit activities including speeches, books, and advisory service engagements. In that context, we have in effect served as agents, lawyers, managers and implementers to secure speaking, business and advisory service deals. In support of the Presidents for-profit activity, we also have solicited and obtained, as appropriate, in-kind services for the President and his family for personal travel, hospitality, vacation and the like.
Neither Justin nor I are separately compensated for these activities (e.g., we do not receive a fee for, or percentage of, the more than $50 million in for-profit activity we have personally helped to secure for President Clinton to date or the $66 million in future contracts, should he choose to continue with those engagements).

True. The Clinton Foundation and CGI are just huge slush funds for the Clintons to fund their new lifestyle of the rich and famous. 90% of the CF money goes to overhead.
I think the only way to fix it is to put them all in jail. They all ride roughshod over the law. A government with a mind to could force a lot of changes.
No, they do not understand. They simply complain about Russia/Putin and Trump. Hillary is a victim. Nevermind national security. These are the kind of voters who are out there.
They do not think of Hillary as wealthy. They say that if Hillary has any money, she earned it. Crazy!
As there is already a Reddit section titled
“Explain like I’m 5”
This needs bullet points, simple explanations.
This info needs to be generated in simple meme form for most people to understand it.
How would you whittle all this down for a meme?
It IS a shame such uninformed people vote!!! I believe though that THIS ELECTION many, many , MORE people are AWAKE and getting informed!!!
Well, that sucks.
I want to make a meme on this.
I want to make it right - precise and simple to understand.
Something that anyone could see on a much easier glance than the pages of memos and e-mails.
Was looking for some help with this.
Never mind....
