DIANE SAWYER, ABC NEWS: It's been reported you've made $5 million making speeches, the president's made more than $100 million.
HILLARY CLINTON: Well, if you -- you have no reason to remember, but we came out of the White House not only dead broke, but in debt. We had no money when we got there and we struggled to, you know, piece together the resources for mortgages for houses, for Chelsea's education, you know, it was not easy. Bill has worked really hard .... we had to pay off all our debts which was, you know, we had to make double the money because of obviously taxes....and get us houses and take care of family members.
SAWYER: ...do you think Americans will understand five times the median income for one speech?
CLINTON: ....I thought making speeches was a much better thing than getting connected with any one group or company as so many people who leave public life do.

It was not easy living on $115M? Really? I’d like to speak to your accountant about how you spent that money...
A news clip of her on Megyn has Hilly mentioning "the cancer of inequality" in a sap-happy, chirpy voice, wearing a h-u-g-e phony grin.
Reminded me of the classic Willam Castle horror movie, "Mr Sardonicus," (whose face becomes frozen in a horrifying grin while robbing the coffin of his father's grave).
Hillary wear her perpetual 2016 game face.
The silverware she lifted was worth something.
Hillary Clintoon is not only vile; she’s shameless.
GOD save us from the likes of her.
Why didn’t she go back to trading Cattle futures.
I mean by reading the wall st journal, she parlayed about 5k into 110 k in less than a year.
Both Clintons have very generous retirement incomes and benefits. Far better than anything the typical working American ever thinks of getting.
Incredibly whining from people who have homes in elite areas (Georgetown, Chappaqua).
Then how could she afford to run for the Senate?
Bill & Hill, the new faces of poverty. I’ll get get a box together with some soup cans and pray for them...lol.
Broke? IIRC you absconded with government property when you moved out.
What kept those lunatics from being sued into oblivion for that prison blood scheme after they left office??
If they were broke, how could they buy that house in Chappaquah?
LOL
I’m curious how much of that missing $6 billion from the State Dept she got
Look at their "non-profit" called The Clinton Global Initiative. Despite taking in hundreds of millions of dollars a year in "donations", they were 50 million dollars in arrears last year alone.
“We Came Out Of The White House Dead Broke” sounds like an excuse for some possible illegal activity they were involved in after they left the White House.
When you play the stock market like those Clintons, money isn’t really a problem.
