A good example is his speech in South Africa on Tuesday during the 6th annual lecture for late and former South Africa President Nelson Mandela. This lecture is held annually to commemorate his death which also happened to be his own birthday.
The South Africans remember this special day to share their love and show respect to their fallen hero by inviting famous leaders to give a public talk to motivate their citizens in tens about politics, economy and social life as a whole.
Being in office for eight years, which accumulate to two successful terms in the White House, Obama is pensionable and receiving a monthly salary.
Book writing is another engaging economic activity that can make one rich even if he or she is not in power.
Obama works with the government press of the United States in publishing books that sell a lot. Since he is the owner of those books, he is able to make good money out of writing.
Some of his works include; "Drops of my father", "Tears of a Nation" and the recent one is "Yes we can".
All these activities are subject to fair earning and can be verified in life audit to know how some leaders get rich while in power or out of power
