Bill & Hillarry Clinton earn USD 109 million in 8 years
Tax return officials said that Hillary Clinton & her husband Bill Clinton earned a combined USD 109 million in eight years, paid USD 33.8 million in taxes & gave away USD 10.2 million to charities. This puts them among the top tier of tax payers in the United States.
After Bill Clinton left officie in 2000 the most of their income came from the sale of books the two wrote as well as the former President’s speaking tours. Expert tax analysts started closely examining the returns immediately after they were released but at least initially failed to find any smoking gun.
The presidential candidates are not required to release their tax returns under the law but only provide rudimentary information. However, they do release the returns in the interest of transparency & to squash any rumours about their financial position.
The documents show that Bill Clinton made much more after leaving the White House.
