The un-celebrity president: Jimmy Carter shuns riches, lives modestly
How has no one pointed out after 8 hours that this man who “shuns riches” receives a pension that puts him in the 97.7th percentile of income[0], a fully funded office, medical benefits, and no housing costs other than property tax? For a majority of America, that would be riches beyond belief. Let’s not forget he plays golf with billionaires.<p>I’m sure Mr. Carter donates a substantial portion of his income and lives rather modestly by choice, but most people don’t have that choice.<p>Edit: slight numerical correction, source.<p>[0]: <a href="https://dqydj.com/income-percentile-calculator/" rel="nofollow">https://dqydj.com/income-percentile-calculator/</a>
