For the cost of one Hillary Clinton speaking appearance, you could have Bernie Sanders speak at your event 361 times, and still have enough money left to book Kim Kardashian.
That’s the math that the University of Missouri at Kansas City had to do recently, when they opted for Chelsea Clinton to speak at their gala luncheon gig instead of her mother.
Chelsea charged $65,000 for the occasion, just under a quarter of Hillary’s $275,000 quote.
The presidential candidate has charged up to $325,000 for an appearance in the past, and made more than $11 million on 51 speeches in 2014 and the first three months of 2015, according to her financial disclosure filed with the Federal Election Commission in May.
Kevin Federline, pop star Britney Spears’ ex-husband, somehow thinks he’s as commanding a presence as Hillary. He asks for as much as $300,000 per appearance. See below for Vocativ’s calculations on what you can get for the cost of one $300K Clinton speaking gig.
