Consider:


     You earn $400k a year

    You live in a big white house, rent free
 
    All meals are included plus 24-hour room service and a free mini-bar
 
    You get first dibs on Air Force One, Army One, Coast Guard One, Executive One,        Marine One, and Navy One (24/7)
    You have full use of Camp David in Maryland 24/7 x 36
    You have an oval office with free internet, local-national-international phone, flat    screen TV with streaming Netflix, AND a movie theater with DVDs of every movie ever made
    You preside over the entire Executive Branch of Government plus an Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine, Coast Guard, and Special Forces who are well trained and eager to do as you wish
    Free medical, dental, hospital, drugs (and an annual physical)
 
    You have more responsibility than anyone in the world and a fleet of drones to assist
 
    Swimming pool, tennis court, and jogging trail (with pool attendants and gardeners)
 
    Unlimited secretarial service, valet, chauffer, and personal advisors on any subject
 
    A good retirement pension with life time Secret Service protection
 
    Post-presidency speeches pay more (a LOT more)
 
    People will build you a personal library in the city of your choice
 
    Oh, did I mention POWER?
