His $1,153,000 budget request for 2018 is more than $100,000 higher than George W. Bush’s request for next year and nearly $200,000 more than Bill Clinton’s expected budget. George H.W. Bush is slated to get $942,000, while Jimmy Carter will get less than half that, at just $456,000.
Mr. Obama’s pension payment is also the highest, at $236,000
Every former president gets an office, expenses and, in some cases, an annual pension payment, thanks to a 1950s-era law enacted after former President Harry S. Truman struggled for income when he left the White House in 1953.
That's A Bad Break For Truman
But Ex-President Of The United States Is As Lucrative As You Want To Make It
Speaking Fees For Some Top $500,000
And None Are Hurting When They Leave Office Anymore
It's Time They All Just Fend For Themselves
On A Side Note,
Hillary Will Charge Nearly $2400 At A Book Signing In Toronto

Granted These Are Canadian Dollars
But Still...
