Clintons’ Worth Estimated at $50 Million
April 3rd, 2008
A major issue has sprung up surrounding Hillary Clinton’s tax returns and where the money lent to her campaign fund has come from. We don’t yet know what these documents will reveal but ahead of Clinton’s release ABC News has put out an estimate placing the Clinton’s worth at $50 Million gained from Bill giving various speeches since leaving office.
An independent review by ABC News has found that since leaving the White House seven years ago, the senator and her former president husband have made well over $50 million, much of it from paid speeches made by Bill Clinton.
A review of Sen. Clinton’s annual ethics filings found that her husband has earned $47 million in fees from more than 280 speeches he has made around the world.
Who is paying the major bucks for those speeches?
