Is it normal to be so rich, yet so obsessed with money?
It’s not unusual, but yeah, this is pretty absurd.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing: is this a psychological defect with the Clintons? I know that Bill came from humble beginnings and maybe there's this urge for the security of financial means. But the cash-grabbing of the Clinton Foundation is over-the-top. Here's a tidbit from Powerline: "Will the Clintons' greed do them in?"
Moreover, there is reason to suspect that the Clinton Foundation has served as a slush fund to finance the Clintons’ private enjoyments. The New York Post reported in 2013 that the Clinton Foundation had spent more than $50 million on travel expenses since 2003. Think about that: $50 million! That would cover a lot of the globe-trotting for which the Clintons are famous.
Look, I realize this includes a staff and some far-flung locales, but $50 million? C'mon. I'm sure Hillary justifies it with the same mindset as the "woe-is-me we were dead broke" statement.
ICYMI - Cha-ching! $300,000 payday on Tuesday talking to Silicon Valley corporations. Nice work if you can get it.

Eric - you forgot to mention that, during her trip, she had a one-on-one meeting with the man who gave Chelsea a seat on his corporate board paying $300,000 a year. Chelsea's main qualification being, of course, access to her parents.
I hear another trick of the Clintons to pull in more money is to suggest to donors that they put some money into Chelsea Clinton's husband's awful hedge fund.
