When they lived in Chicago, they didn't have to pay much, if anything for Lab School ( which their kids went to ), because of that AFFIRMATIVE ACTION no show job he had at the U of C, which Lab is connected to. That, alone, saved them $60,000 per year.
They also had a private chef, who did the marketing and cooking for the family. THAT DOESN'T COME CHEAP!
The Mooch was also known to shop at pricey boutiques on Oak Street, where clothes are mainly from European designers.
And his tax returns, when he showed them, when he began his presidency proves my claim. Also, I used to live in Chicago...so know these things and more.
I know North Michigan Avenue quite well myself. I thought the Oak Street shopping happened after Barack was elected as senator.
I would be surprised if they were actually worth millions at that point because there was quite a lot of speculation as to how they could have ever afforded the pricey house in Hyde Park. That’s where Tony Rezko came in.
BTW, what corporate boards did Obama sit on? And, from what I understand, Obama was never even an adjunct professor of U of C. How much do non-tenured lecturers actually make?

Don’t forget those 2 expensive pooches who had their own staff and plane.
