In one of the newly release Hillary Clinton emails, a mostly redacted message from Philip Gordon to Huma Abedin and Jacob Sullivan ends with, "To quote Huma, I don't get paid enough." Abedin, Clintons closest aide, was able to change her fortunes with a little help from friends.
In 2012, Abedin transitioned to being a "special employee," meaning she could hold several jobs in addition to her role at the State Department. Presumably, that meant she got a raise.
As the Washington Post notes,
At the time, Abedin held four jobs with four different employers an arrangement allowed by a special government designation she held permitting outside employment.
As for one of her four jobs, the New York Post reports that Abedin received a substantial salary increase:
She reportedly raked in $355,000 as a consultant to Teneo, while simultaneously pocketing $135,000 in government pay.
Teneo is a company closely tied with the Clintons. Bill Clinton formerly advised the company

And Donna Summers song, "She Works Hard for the Money" certainly applies.
You couldn’t pay me a enough money to be Hillary’s girlfriend.

She is paid in clams.
BEARDED clams, that is.
The bearded clam died about 15 years ago. The era of plush pile carpet is over, hardwood floors are all the rage.
The only point was that your comment made no sense since Huma wasn’t the one the email was from.
You aren't making sense to me.
Who is 'he' and how is he 'quitting' Huma ?
Sec. Of State....third from the left....otherwise Hillary could not and does not do the work. She is the “Front Face” for Huma’s work.
OH wait, I see now.
You meant HE IS QUOTING HUMA.
That is true, but the two comments I referred to seem to be indicating that Huma said that Huma quoted herself saying she didn’t get paid enough.
It’s probably just miscommunication by the other posters and really not all that important.
My apologies on the typo—I’m traveling and on my obstreperous Android.
Yeah, I figured out (finally) that it was a typo.
But do you see what I meant about those two original comments ?
Maybe it’s just me.
It takes a lot of hard work for Huma to maintain her licker license.
It takes government to invent this new concept of doing multiple jobs simultaneously and getting paid for all of them.
Huma does have a point here. I’d only do Hillary if it would save the life of a close family member. That and a lot of vodka.
Hillary can’t quit Huma.
It also takes Huma a lot of practice to maintain her poker skills.
Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!
