his own half brother lives on $12 a YEAR.

Sorry, I don't buy this, regardless of how often it's reported.

Hundreds of millions worldwide survive on about a dollar a day.

Nobody survives on a dollar a month. That would be three cents a day. Even in Kenya, you can't eat on that.

I think they misinterpreted the article. I read it as he pays $1 a month for rent of the hut. That doesn’t mean that’s how much he earns, just all he pays in rent. Of course he probably doesn’t make much more than that.

You are missing the point. Obama lives in luxury and preaches about how WE should help the poor yet can’t even be bothered to send his half brother a few bucks.

Nobody lives in a hut either.

You don’t believe it? Even CNN has a reporter on it, but the editors buried it:
