Tricky Dick Nixon pocketed about $15 million after leaving office in disgrace - not bad for a crook who claimed he wasn't one! The bastard didn't inherit a dime, just hustled his way through post-presidential life with book deals and real estate grabs. Typical politician.
Looking at these other presidents' numbers makes my blood boil. Clinton walked in with pocket change and left with $241 million? Give me a break! I've watched my crypto portfolio swing more wildly than that, but at least I'm honest about how I make my money.
Reagan, both Bushes, Obama - all the same story. Go in with some cash, come out filthy rich. The political game is rigged worse than any trading platform I've used. These guys talk about serving the country while serving their wallets.
Trump's the only one who lost money! Down over a billion while the rest got richer? Maybe being president isn't the cash grab everyone thinks - at least not for guys who already have real money.
I've traded through bull and bear markets, but nothing's as predictable as ex-presidents getting rich. They leave office, write some ghost-written book, give speeches to Wall Street for $250k a pop, and boom - set for life.
Numbers don't lie, but politicians sure do. Next time someone tells you they're running to "serve the people," check their bank account before and after. The real yield comes after they leave office.
What's your take? Which president played the money game best?
