Harry Truman and oddly Calvin Coolidge and Woodrow Wilson were the poorest Presidents in America, indeed Truman was impoverished for most of his life and politics was essentially his "day job" in that after his Presidency he was essentially unemployable due that Secret Service policies wouldn't allow him to live a normal life (for example when you become President you essentially lose your right to drive an automobile or use public transportation), anyway, because of this and that Truman was essentially below the salt, Congress specifically made a law to give former presidents a pension to keep Truman on his feet

Ancora un'altro errore, la Malaysia non è una repubblica con un presidente. E' invece una federazione di 7 monarchie costituzionali (Sultanati) ed alcuni territori. Pertanto il capo della federazione è scelto ogni 5 anni fra i vari sovrani dei sultanati ed ha il titolo di Yang di Pertuang Agong (in pratica è un particolare tipo di monarchia elettiva federale)
Jacinda Arden of New Zealand is not the president. She is the prime minister. New Zealand is a part of the Commonwealth. The country acknowledges King Charles the III as their Head of State. You also messed up on the name of the President of Iceland. It’s Guðni T. Jóhannesson. The money that the Queen of Denmark gets from the government every year doesn’t go all into her own pocket. It’s used to pay the salaries for staff at court as well as for inner maintenance of castles that she uses which are owned by the government and to pay for upkeep of a few castles that she does own. She is also required to use this money to fund any official travel taken on behalf of the nation of Denmark as well as any private travels. For years the Queen has had a tradition of taking a short trip to Britain in December to buy gifts for her family. The Danish royals are not poor, but they are quite far from the richest royals in Europe. They live quite modestly. Royal women are known for reusing and altering dresses they have worn before. Queen Margrethe II just celebrated her 50th jubilee. She is now the longest reigning monarch in Europe.
It's not modest when they earn so much just because they were born into families that ruled the country once. Unelected heads of states are still unelected
Very informative. But why have you spelt ‘Luxemburg’ with a ‘k’ or is this a simple spelling mistake the same as Thailand with ‘$$’ and Queen of England spelt ‘Quenn’! Also your method of display is in ascending order i.e. lowest to highest, yet after Brunei @ $1,986,768,008 you drop to $122,442,502 for the ‘Quenn’!, of the UK; then Kuwait @ $165,000,000, then back the ascending order! Any reason?
Could it be just put in the wrong place on the video. The UK Queen should be between Prince of Monaco and King of Thailand. The UK Sovereign Grant for 2021/2022 is £86,300,000. But that is for all of the royals not just the King.
@@grahamsmith9541 duchy of lancaster was her/is his personal income on top, but is different from the source of said grant. one of rare occasion head of state pays for herself/himself :)
In the UK, the Queen (now King) is the head of state, but the Prime minister is equivalent to the role of a President. That's currently Rishi Sunak and his salary for the role, including (being paid to be a member of Parliament), is around £160k in total.
Quite a few. What he gets paid for being a prime minister is probably pocket money to him. He's worth millions and his wife's dad owns a very successful IT consultancy. Anyway big Macs aren't Rishi's thing, apparently his fave maccies order is the Breakfast wrap, which funnily hasn't been on the McDonald's menu for a while, somehow I don't think he frequents McDonald's often, do you? 😄
It’s not the salaries o f these scum bags It’s the so called expenses that they live on… al lfinish as millionaires…. Snouts in the trough…. Only in it for the money and the goodies when they leave……. Ever see a poor politician ??
Not really. The role of the President is equivalent to the roles of a King AND of a Prime Minister, because in presidential system he is the head of State AND head of government.
So when Mrs Zelenska dropped off in Paris for a little shopping she spent 4 years worth of Zelensky salaries? Man get rid of her she's gonna bankrupt you.
@@antonisapostolou5139 she didn't do that shopping trip. And even if she did - they had wealth from their previous jobs. I wouldn't even count it against her if she had done that shopping trip and got herself some nice designer clothes for her next meetings with world leaders. She's actually working for free now (being First Lady isn't a paid job).
@@antonisapostolou5139 are you seriously asking? They were co-founders/owners of the biggest media production company in the post Soviet countries, Studio Kvartal 95, that was founded on the basis of Zelenskyy's comedy troupe. Olena worked there in some management position and as a script writer, and Zelenskyy was a manager, the lead in their comedy shows, acted in almost a dozen movies (look up his IMDB), starred in his very successful tv show "Servant of the People", produced another very successful tv show "Svaty" (Inlaws), voiced the Paddington Bear movies for the Ukrainian version, etc. If he had had his career in western Europe, he'd easily be worth €200m, like eg. German comedian and producer Stefan Raab. After selling their shares of the company when Zelenskyy became president, I read (from multiple sources) that they were worth around $20m. Which is peanuts compared to what they would have earned in a 20 year career of this magnitude in the west. But still, pretty wealthy. So, even if she really went on a 40K shopping spree in Paris, so what? She can't go shopping to calm her nerves like other rich people do (who aren't even at war)? I don't believe this shopping spree story, though, because she usually wears Ukrainian designers, why would she go to Paris for that? And their clothes might not even be available there, so it makes no sense. Plus, the story originated from some dubious Telegram channel and the amount of money is changed by people every day, one day it's 20K, the next it's 40K, the next it's suddenly 200K... yeah, sure, sounds really legit. /sarcasm
As a Thai citizen, I am proud that our king is the world's sixth richest head of state. I feel hungry after watching this video. Let me prepare my favorite instant cup noodles.
It's certainly a headspin seeing how many nation's leaders are paid less than my country's average wage. More of a headspin how many have less pay than my country's base pay for an entry level public service position. Like even outsource is roughly the range that Pakistan's President is paid apparently. It does cost significantly more to live here though. Property prices in/near cities are above a million even for a craphole that would be cheaper to knock down and rebuild.
If you payed me 2000 euros a month to to work at a grocery stoor, or 1000 euros a month to be the minister president, Id instantly pick the highest office in my land and rule justly and honorably and doing so earn my glory and the peoples admiarion.

Canada and New Zealand don’t have presidents - their Head of Government is called Prime Minister, the Head of State is King Charles III of UK, who is represented by a Governor-General.
Do you mean that the author of the video had to create a separate video for "kings", "emperors", "heads of the government" (like in Israel), prime ministers, "heads of states", and so on? He generalized all of the heads of the governments under the same "overarching" term "president". It's a bit inaccurate, but not so dramatic as you present it!

As a President, - yes, but he is also a successful businessman, he has earned a lot of money before his presidency in the sphere of entertainment. When his presidential term is over, he won't rely on the money earned as a President. He has other assets.

2/3 of the world leaders and that just beeing some nameless IT professional in germany with ~110.000$/year.

Yes, and you don't realise how happy you are.
Ancora un'altro errore, la Malaysia non è una repubblica con un presidente. E' invece una federazione di 7 monarchie costituzionali (Sultanati) ed alcuni territori. Pertanto il capo della federazione è scelto ogni 5 anni fra i vari sovrani dei sultanati ed ha il titolo di Yang di Pertuang Agong (in pratica è un particolare tipo di monarchia elettiva federale)
Hai visto il nostro Sergio sembra un pezzente im confronto ai pezzi grossi😁

@a basketboy afaik the king of UK doesnt get anything from the commonwealth realms as salary.
@a basketboy still no salary for him from them afaik
Jacinda Arden of New Zealand is not the president. She is the prime minister. New Zealand is a part of the Commonwealth. The country acknowledges King Charles the III as their Head of State.
You also messed up on the name of the President of Iceland. It’s Guðni T. Jóhannesson.
The money that the Queen of Denmark gets from the government every year doesn’t go all into her own pocket. It’s used to pay the salaries for staff at court as well as for inner maintenance of castles that she uses which are owned by the government and to pay for upkeep of a few castles that she does own. She is also required to use this money to fund any official travel taken on behalf of the nation of Denmark as well as any private travels.
For years the Queen has had a tradition of taking a short trip to Britain in December to buy gifts for her family. The Danish royals are not poor, but they are quite far from the richest royals in Europe. They live quite modestly. Royal women are known for reusing and altering dresses they have worn before. Queen Margrethe II just celebrated her 50th jubilee. She is now the longest reigning monarch in Europe.

Very informative. But why have you spelt ‘Luxemburg’ with a ‘k’ or is this a simple spelling mistake the same as Thailand with ‘$$’ and Queen of England spelt ‘Quenn’! Also your method of display is in ascending order i.e. lowest to highest, yet after Brunei @ $1,986,768,008 you drop to $122,442,502 for the ‘Quenn’!, of the UK; then Kuwait @ $165,000,000, then back the ascending order! Any reason?

Could it be just put in the wrong place on the video. The UK Queen should be between Prince of Monaco and King of Thailand. The UK Sovereign Grant for 2021/2022 is £86,300,000. But that is for all of the royals not just the King.

In the UK, the Queen (now King) is the head of state, but the Prime minister is equivalent to the role of a President. That's currently Rishi Sunak and his salary for the role, including (being paid to be a member of Parliament), is around £160k in total.
How many big macs can I buy with that?
Quite a few.
What he gets paid for being a prime minister is probably pocket money to him. He's worth millions and his wife's dad owns a very successful IT consultancy.
Anyway big Macs aren't Rishi's thing, apparently his fave maccies order is the Breakfast wrap, which funnily hasn't been on the McDonald's menu for a while, somehow I don't think he frequents McDonald's often, do you? 😄

It’s not the salaries o f these scum bags It’s the so called expenses that they live on… al lfinish as millionaires…. Snouts in the trough…. Only in it for the money and the goodies when they leave……. Ever see a poor politician ??
Not really. The role of the President is equivalent to the roles of a King AND of a Prime Minister, because in presidential system he is the head of State AND head of government.

Ukraine is getting every $ worth, and more with Zelenskyy. Terrific deal right there.
I think my company paid our summer interns about the same monthly salary as Zelenskyy has... 🙈
So when Mrs Zelenska dropped off in Paris for a little shopping she spent 4 years worth of Zelensky salaries? Man get rid of her she's gonna bankrupt you.
@@antonisapostolou5139 she didn't do that shopping trip. And even if she did - they had wealth from their previous jobs. I wouldn't even count it against her if she had done that shopping trip and got herself some nice designer clothes for her next meetings with world leaders. She's actually working for free now (being First Lady isn't a paid job).
@@TheFeldhamster what were their previous jobs?
@@antonisapostolou5139 are you seriously asking? They were co-founders/owners of the biggest media production company in the post Soviet countries, Studio Kvartal 95, that was founded on the basis of Zelenskyy's comedy troupe.
Olena worked there in some management position and as a script writer, and Zelenskyy was a manager, the lead in their comedy shows, acted in almost a dozen movies (look up his IMDB), starred in his very successful tv show "Servant of the People", produced another very successful tv show "Svaty" (Inlaws), voiced the Paddington Bear movies for the Ukrainian version, etc. If he had had his career in western Europe, he'd easily be worth €200m, like eg. German comedian and producer Stefan Raab.
After selling their shares of the company when Zelenskyy became president, I read (from multiple sources) that they were worth around $20m. Which is peanuts compared to what they would have earned in a 20 year career of this magnitude in the west. But still, pretty wealthy.
So, even if she really went on a 40K shopping spree in Paris, so what? She can't go shopping to calm her nerves like other rich people do (who aren't even at war)? I don't believe this shopping spree story, though, because she usually wears Ukrainian designers, why would she go to Paris for that? And their clothes might not even be available there, so it makes no sense. Plus, the story originated from some dubious Telegram channel and the amount of money is changed by people every day, one day it's 20K, the next it's 40K, the next it's suddenly 200K... yeah, sure, sounds really legit. /sarcasm

It's certainly a headspin seeing how many nation's leaders are paid less than my country's average wage. More of a headspin how many have less pay than my country's base pay for an entry level public service position. Like even outsource is roughly the range that Pakistan's President is paid apparently.
It does cost significantly more to live here though. Property prices in/near cities are above a million even for a craphole that would be cheaper to knock down and rebuild.

Canada and New Zealand don’t have presidents - their Head of Government is called Prime Minister, the Head of State is King Charles III of UK, who is represented by a Governor-General.
Do you mean that the author of the video had to create a separate video for "kings", "emperors", "heads of the government" (like in Israel), prime ministers, "heads of states", and so on? He generalized all of the heads of the governments under the same "overarching" term "president". It's a bit inaccurate, but not so dramatic as you present it!

As a President, - yes, but he is also a successful businessman, he has earned a lot of money before his presidency in the sphere of entertainment. When his presidential term is over, he won't rely on the money earned as a President. He has other assets.
@@tanyaamosava241 I'm not talking about his business and how much money he made from entertainment. I'm sure it's a blatant lie that he gets 11,000. Ukraine is the most corrupt country in Europe. This was even before the war. And you can prove anything to me, but to believe that the president of 11,000 in the most corrupt country on our continent must be an idiot
Ukraine is one of the most corrupt country in the world.
