The reason the CEO of Haliburton, and other top CEO`s of bank`s etc. are flocking to Dubai is because there is, `NO` extradition law`s in place. In other word`s once the US/World slip`s into a Depression so big it`ll make the 30`s look like a cake walk, and they`ve made off w/ all the cash like bandit`s, they`ll then come here to dubai and soak up the sun, while enjoying the show.

Bill Gates makes enough to put one of these on daily and still have 5 million left over per day. Alex Rodriguez could have one for 12 consecutive years and have half a million left over. If the president saved for 50 years he could have only one. Oprah could have a firework show 13 times a year or 65 times with her net worth.

^ not true. While it would take that long for Bush to save that much up if he only used his presidential salary. He already has about 20 million in assets(that he claimed). Yes it`s nothing compared to Gates, but Bush could throw one of these right now.

Please don`t twist the facts!

^it`s some fun trivia I found about salary. The president gets 400k a year. Either way he couldn`t keep term for 50 consecutive years.

^ Its not about how many terms he serves. Its about the money he gets from doing interviews (Like Clinton).. Clinton actually got like 50k per appearance at local events. GORE made a nice sum of cash and he was never even president...

It says the president makes 400k a year from his job as president but not from his other ventures that he undoubtedly acquires by holding the highest political office in the United States (Not only the bad stuff but events like showing up at at events... i.e Clinton Writing books/50k per speech) Gore got a good amount of money at events though he never even became president.

Please don`t misrepresent the facts!
