It's Good To Be POTUS: The Many Perks Of Being Commander In Chief
  • 3 years ago
The road to the Oval Office is fraught with peril and stained with blood, sweat, and tears. But once there, the US President makes out reasonably well.
According to Business Insider, the president earns an annual salary of $400,000, as well as unlimited access to Air Force One, Marine One, and Camp David.
He and his family are also looked after by over 100 White House staffers, including top-flight pastry chefs, maids, landscapers, plumbers, and a head housekeeper.
While the president is never really 'off,' he and his family can relax and watch movies in the White House media room, and work off steam in a number of sports areas.
Finally, US presidents get free healthcare and a generous $200,000 annual pension--for life!
