Chelsea Clinton, $10M Apartment, $3M Wedding, $600K Job: I Just Don’t Care About Money
USA Politics News ^ | 06 May 2016

Posted on 05/11/2016 1:59:41 PM PDT by Lorianne

The daughter of former President Bill Clinton and ex-secretary of state Hillary Clinton explained in a new interview why she left lucrative professions and opted for working with her family’s philanthropic foundation. ‘I was curious if I could care about (money) on some fundamental level, and I couldn’t,’ she said.

Hillary Clinton insists she isn’t “well-off” and now daughter Chelsea says 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 UK’s The Telegraph, 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.

Is Chelsea still too young to be Hillary’s VP?

She’s better care since her husband reportedly lost 90% of a fund he was managing. Next he’ll be living off her money.

She hasn’t produced a tangible product, or thought, in her whole life.

She never had to live knowing exactly to the cent how many pennies, nickels and dimes she had in her pocket or purse - every day.

One can only hope that she, Chelsea, will live an uneasy life, always wondering what scandal will erupt next. Her parents never cared about scandal, they brushed all of them off casually.
The Clinton family will soon pay for their sins. November will be a good time to begin.

Whatever will she do if mommy and daddy are convicted, and the “foundation” money is all used up by fines and lawyer fees?

Poor thing!

Why that wouldn't be a problem for Chelsea because after all, she just doesn't care about money.

Let her go without the big mega bucks for awhile and see if she still doesn't care about money.

Nope, she’s 36.
You have to be 35 to be VP or P.

Rules do not apply to demoocrats any longer.

Obama changed that minor impediment.

Having been brought up by two exceptionally intelligent and skilled psychopaths how could anyone *possibly* believe that she'd be any different?

And his rolodex (such an old-fashioned term!) and his influence on behalf of little Chelsea.

There is no way her future actions are going to match the, ‘I don’t care about money’ meme she’s spouting, now.

Boy, isn't that the truth! I HAVE lived that experience, and sounds like you have, as well. It sure makes a difference in one’s outlook and attitudes toward money.
