Hillary Clinton insists she isn’t “well-off” and now daughter Chelsea, according to a recent interview, claims she couldn't care less about money.
“I was curious if I could care about (money) on some fundamental level, and I couldn’t,” she told Fast Company in an interview that ran in the magazine's May edition, explaining why she gave up lucrative gigs to join her family’s philanthropic foundation.
Comparing her experience to the average millennial, the 34-year-old former first daughter defended jumping around to different careers — from consulting to a hedge fund to academia to journalism — before finding her true calling working with her parents.
“It is frustrating, because who wants to grow up and follow their parents? I’ve tried really hard to care about things that were very different from my parents … it’s a funny thing to realize I feel called to this work, both as a daughter and also as someone who believes I have contributions to make,” she continued about her reluctant status as a boomerang kid.
The Clinton name likely opened doors for the political heiress, including an eye-popping $600,000 annual salary for an irregular stint as an NBC special correspondent, but Chelsea insists her work speaks for itself.
“I will just always work harder (than anybody else) and hopefully perform better,” said Clinton, who along with former banker husband Marc Mezvinsky, purchased a $10.5-million Gramercy Park apartment in 2013. “And hopefully, over time, I preempt and erase whatever expectations people have of me not having a good work ethic, or not being smart, or not being motivated.”
The comments, while not new, have nonetheless garnered a new round of attention in recent days after her mom and likely 2016 candidate, Hillary, was criticized for remarks suggesting she exited the White House "dead broke" and wasn't "truly well off" despite millions of dollars in public speaking earnings.
“I don’t care about money, and I don’t NEED to care because I make $600,000 a year! What’s to care about?!!!”
No, you don't have to WORRY about money in that circumstances. She doesn't worry about it, but she cares plenty.
A 2 year old article is not “breaking news”.
My bad.
*** claims she couldn’t care less about money. ***
Scarlet O’Hara said the same thing until she met her first bout with starvation. “AS GOD IS MY WITNESS, I’LL NEVER BE HUNGRY AGAIN!”

In posting we got that thread PACKED with more Clinton scandals and their ‘trickle up to them’ policy than anyone has time for.
EVIL family!
Shame on you, Chelsea!
Come clean. Save the Free World. You KNOW, Chelsea. You know how dangerous and evil your parents are.
Ask for immunity for crying out loud! You’ll be a hero. But the clock is running out.
That’s because everything is thrown at her. Never wanted for anything. Just a privilege life. Hubs daughter.

To Chelsea Clinton ...
Go to Tom Fitton, Judicial Watch.
He could negotiate an immunity agreement with you ASAP.
Save the USA!
So, in the manner of the Borgias, various and sundry royal and most all Indians, she submitted to an arranged marriage
Barfing chunks
Fish don’t know that they’re wet either.
[calming down]
Okay, so Chelsea, look I realize that this corrupt DOJ won’t get you an immunity deal. I understand that. So contact someone smart and patriotic who can keep you safe until Trump is sworn in.
Get the word out to wikileaks from now until then and I am certain that Trump’s administration would grant you immunity.
“Found her true calling at the foundation...”
That’s RICH.
Chew your food next time. Thirty two times per bite.
LOL. As if the family's foundation isn't lucrative.
Just as phony as her old lady . . . .
Easy not to care about money when you are basically given millions of dollars and don’t have to worry about never having it.
