CLEVER MONKEY OF THE WEEK

FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON

For getting a $5 Million advance to pen a book about his numerous charitable activities.

Think whatever you might of William Jefferson Clinton, you have to give the ever-smiling overachiever credit.

He finds, in the lassitude of his post-Presidential years, a devoted and commendable calling to charity. And so canny is the man that he is able to extract a $5 million advance from Knopf to write a book about his benevolence.

While there have been many noble people who have given their lives to charitable acts, it is a rare person indeed who can find a way to make millions out of it.

We can all rest assured that he is now even more abundantly funded to keep up his meritorious work.
