NBC's Chelsea Clinton: I Don't Care About Money, and 'I Will Always Work Harder Than Anyone'
News Busters ^ | June 23 2014 | Cheri Jacobus

Thank goodness for Mommy's magic cattle futures!

Erstwhile NBC correspondent Chelsea Clinton claims that try as she might, she just can't make herself care about money. In an interview with the UK's Telegraph the multi-millionaire says, "I was curious if I could care about [money] on some fundamental level, and I couldn’t." Lucky for her, she doesn't have to. Like her famous mother who, in 1978 managed to take a meager $1000 investment in cattle futures and magically turn it into $100,000 and not be imprisoned for insider trading, Chelsea also seems to have the "Midas touch" when it comes to acquiring enormous amounts of money with little time, training or effort.

As liberals assail the high salaries of top corporate CEOs, the liberal safe haven of broadcast television, NBC, paid former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton an astonishing $600,000 a year. But in the interview she says she has sacrificed the high-paying jobs for her current, more humble professional life which also includes working for her parents' foundation.

The average starting salary of TV reporters nationwide is $23,300 a year. While most national network journalists rise through the ranks and/or move from small media markets to larger and then finally, only the few at the top of their game land at a network, Chelsea Clinton's talents were apparently so spectacular, that in addition to warrant being paid nearly 26 times what other first-time journalists make, she was able to start at the top in her first "journalism" job, similar to fellow NBC entry-level celeb "journalist" Ronan Farrow, (son of Mia Farrow and either Woody Allen or Frank Sinatra).

You’re probably correct.
Hell they may have paid HER to attend, LOL.

I’m sure every big name school will be begging for Malaria and Sharia Obama.

Stranger things have happened.
Don’t count out Sandy Fluke by then either, along with Faucahontas’ daughter Amelia Tyagi who is tight with the Hollywood crowd.

There was a story recently that NBC paid her $600,000 per year ..??

But, she’s not interested in money.

Malia and Sasha.

Some other FReeper came up with it.

I can’t take credit.

I’ve gotten chastised by AdminMods for snarking on the offspring but I slip it in occasionally.

Her career counseling told her she was too dumb to pursue such a career.

Whenever some rich person says they don’t care about money, I know that means they’ve never, ever worried about paying their monthly bills and they always knew where their next meal was coming from. Still, it’s a real jackass thing to say. It shows a complete lack of empathy. Just because a person’s never worried about necessities doesn’t mean he couldn’t imagine himself in his brother’s shoes.

I seriously doubt she is going to take a minimum wage job and do a good job flipping burgers.

I wonder if Webb Hubbell had a higher SAT score than Bill’s 1032?
