A new report shows being President is an lucrative job – even after you leave office.
The nonpartisan Congressional Research Service says the government spent almost $3.7 million in pension benefits on the four former presidents last year.
Here are the four highest totals:
- 4. Jimmy Carter: $500,000
- 3. George H.W. Bush: almost $850,000
- 2. Bill Clinton: just under $1 million
- 1. George W. Bush: more than $1.3 million
