Humiliating state of Joe Biden finances revealed: Unwanted president can't get a paid job and will likely die in debt

He retired late and has a mortgage not set to be paid off until just after his 100th birthday.

Some might say that's not the best of financial planning.

And as he struggles to find his post-presidential feet there seems little prospect that Joe Biden, 82, will get any help from some of his Democratic friends.

Many of them are still seething at the octogenarian's decision to attempt a reelection bid in 2024, and have little appetite to invite him to make lucrative speeches, or to contribute funds to his presidential library.

'There isn't a whole lot of goodwill for the former president in some key corridors of power, and that stems from the fact that he never should have tried to mount a reelection,' one Democratic insider told the Daily Mail.

'A lot of us are frustrated and even angry.

'So, there are very few of us who are well disposed to want to support a presidential library or to provide him any other kind of financial support.

'There are a lot of Democrats that remain really disappointed In what he did and would rather he ride off into the Rehoboth sunset.'

Jill could get a teaching gig.
 

Or at a hospital.  Emptying bed pans and cleaning up poop.  She has prior experience.

So, his inability to deal with financial matters isn't just national?

C'mon, man! Did Hunter blow all the money?

Former U.S. presidents are entitled to a taxable lifetime pension equal to the annual salary of a Cabinet Secretary (Executive Level I) under the Former Presidents Act of 1958.
 As of 2025, this pension is set at $250,600 per year.
 The pension begins immediately after a president leaves office.

In addition to the pension, former presidents receive various benefits funded by the General Services Administration (GSA), including office space, staffing allowances, communications support, travel funds, and mailing privileges.
 They also receive lifetime Secret Service protection for themselves and their spouse, as well as health insurance and transition funding for up to seven months after leaving office.

Spouses of former presidents may receive a lifetime annual pension of $20,000 if they relinquish any other statutory pension.
 Former presidents who served in other federal positions, such as Congress or the vice presidency, may also be eligible for separate federal pensions, and there is no legal restriction preventing them from collecting both. (AI)
