THE PARASITE REPORT: The Clintons and Obamas cash in on presidency
Lowell Sun ^ | 12/25/2018 | Peter Lucas / FR Posted by simpson96
Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, both once men of modest means have capitalized on their years as president to become very rich. Bill and Hillary Clinton set the standard for the selling of the presidency that Barack and Michelle Obama are currently following. And the Obamas are so good at making money that they are becoming richer than the Clintons, if that is possible.
Like the Clintons, the Obamas are grabbing with both hands.
The Clinton’s reaped a fortune when Hillary Clinton was secretary of state during Obama’s first term. She and Bill Clinton launched the Clinton Foundation. Countries seeking access poured billions into the allegedly non-profit foundation in what many called a pay for play operation.
Speaking fees for both soared.
But the Obamas are outdoing the Clintons, and they are doing it without either of them holding public office, the way Hillary Clinton did.
In addition to a joint $65 million book advance and a $50 million deal with Netflix that she shares with Barack, Michelle Obama is also raking in millions selling her memoir “Becoming” along with merchandise connected to the book in appearances across the country. She is also paid $225,000 to speak at group events.
Barack, not to be outdone, gets a whopping $400,000 for a speech. He was paid $1.2 million in 2017 for three talks to the Wall Street firms he once criticized. Forbes estimated that the Obamas are now worth more than $135 million. And Obama gets an annual pension of $207,800.
Every day is Christmas when you leave the White House the way the Clintons and the Obamas did. Trump should be so lucky.
Did you find any errors (substantial or merely inconvenient) in David’s “conversation” above?
Any substantial “other” omissions similar to the one I missed concerning Sneidermann’s coverup of foreign charitable bribes?
