Didn't read because it's a Fox article

Why do people care about where a former president and his wife live

They don't because they are stupid, or they don't care because sticking it to the libs is the only viewpoint worth believing in

Obama is a flip flopper. He told a group of kids that his favorite food was broccoli, and then a few years later he said he favorite food was pizza. Good thing he's out of the White House.

While Fox is being very stupid, I do think there's something to be said about a former president "cashing in" upon leaving office, and the distrust that can engender. Not to suggest there's anything sinister about getting paid for writing a book, though that isn't all the Obamas have done since 2016

This article I think makes some good points on the matter: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/4/25/15419740/obama-speaking-fee

I love shitting on Obama as much as the next guy but this isn't hypocrisy. He wasn't really a promoter of socialism and free shit unlike some current candidates who are extremely hypocritical.

Obama: "at some point you've made enough money"

When president:
- doesn't do anything to help poor people

After being president:
- pals around with rich folk
- tries to convert public space in Chicago to his own personal temple
- doesn't go back to advocate for his community
- buys a $15 million beachfront property

Obama is a lying snake who takes Wall Street money and liberals are hypocrites for still kissing his ass while criticizing Republicans who do the same stuff.

Rightists are hypocrites here because they're crying about hypocrisy and corruption and rich people when they defend all three of those things on a near constant basis when a Republican does it.

I have my own life snd finances to worry about. Who cares how rich Obama is??? I would hope that a former president would be wealthy from having to lead a country for 8 years.

Million dollars houses aren't even a lot of money I'm middle class and own half a million dollar house and my career just started. I wish people understood context of money and assets. Being a small millionaire now is honestly middle class.

So I've heard Obama went from around ~$15 million at the start of his presidency to ~$130 million at the end of his presidency. I will say he comes off as suspect. But I also see he has invested in Chainlink as noted by him following the Cofounder of Chainlink, Steve Ellis on Twitter so I expect his networth to be in the billions within a year or so.
