I wonder if Burkle will use his own money....not

I doubt Clinton will use his own money...8-)

My guess is that Burkle will make a big commission on selling the loser paper to CALPERS and CALSTARS with Yucaipa doing the management and sales.

For all his supposedly fabulous wealth Soros apparently knows how to pinch a penny too:

THE MONEY MAN

...A friend who asked not to be identified said that Soros was so uninterested in money that he often travelled with an empty wallet, forcing friends to loan him cash for cab fare, which he invariably forgot to pay back. Women, the friend said, flocked to him, “because they expect him to leave hundred-dollar bills in their pocketbooks. But he never does.”
