"The Post tallied up Bill Clinton’s compensation from speeches and consulting during Hillary’s four years as Secretary of State and came up with $65.4 million."

How many during her 8 years as Senator? He had heart surgery in there somewhere, so that prolly hurt his earnings, as well as his chest. How much in the 3 years after she was SS? Can we conclude that 1989 speeches costing $1M cost $250K in 2012 after adjusting for deflation?

Watch Mark Cuban School FOX Host: “Reagan Was Paid A MILLION Dollars For Speeches!”
“Look. You have to ask yourself what’s the market for a former president giving a speech, right? So first of all, Ronald Reagan was paid more than a million dollars for speeches in 1989. He went to Japan and gave two speeches.

Second of all, Bill Clinton made, I think it was $250K give or take, for a lot of speeches. I’ve made $250K for a bunch of speeches. For the most part, he gets paid a little more than I do, but the point is he was right inside the market. He wasn’t getting paid more or less than the market.”
