WOW ... it must be nice to be an ex-President (if you name is slick
willy). $109 million since leaving office. That is amazing
(especially compared to his income before and while in office).
How do you make $109 million in eight years?
I'd like a piece of that action.

Or have bought about half a million shares in Google IPO just a few years
back. :)

In today's democracies it is quite common for former political leaders
to earn a lot of money after they leave politics.

I wont say jealous (I don't resent their wealth), but I would be very
curious as to the means they used to acquire their wealth. It appears
to be mainly influence peddling, but even so it appears that it is
more lucrative then normal.
