Hillary Clinton insists she isnt 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 couldnt, 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 familys 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? Ive tried really hard to care about things that were very different from my parents its 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.
Also moron. Apparently she does not know the meaning of the word “preempt”.
Sometimes I like to use big words I don’t understand so I will sound more photosynthesis.
The stupid little twitbag doesn’t care about money because she doesn’t have to. And, being an only child, she’ll get mom and dad’s stash ‘o cash after they’re dead. Any guesses whether there’s a calendar in her office with the days being marked off by red X’s on a daily basis?
Why should she care about money when her parent’s corruption and crimes have provided her with more than she can spend. It’s only serfs like us who have to work every day who ‘care’ about money.
You don’t have to care about something when it is handed to you. You care about the things you earn!
Chelsea couldn’t care about WORKING for money.
Message to Chelsea. Of course you don’t; you silly spoiled bitch! You don’t have to because have had everything handed to you on a silver platter!
Only an idiot born into wealth, privilege, and entitlement would say some stupid crap like this.
Chelsea Clinton does not care about money the same way Prince Andrew does not care about money...
Old farmer friend explained it to me this way.” Ya plants beans ya gets beans.” Just that simple.
At one point the mother comments that, "they don't care about money". To which Hughes replied; "that's because you have some". Ditto Chelsea Clinton. She has lived in a bubble due to the corruption and money grubbing of her parents.

Not saying I wish it would happen, but wouldn’t it be ironic if Bill, Hillary and Chelsea were in a wreck with a thrice deported illegal? Not that I’d want that to happen....
I’m sure her folks socked enough away for her to put or on a glide path into oblivion.
