The Jewish National Fund is paying former President Bill Clinton half a million dollars to make a 45-minute speech in honor of Israeli President Shimon Peres’ 90th birthday, according to a new report.
The event, which will be held June 17 in Rehovot, Israel, at the Peres Academic Center previously asked guests to pay just more than $800 to attend, to cover Clinton’s fee. That requirement has since been canceled after Peres said he wouldn’t attend if it became a fundraiser, according to the Times of Israel.

I thought he was averaging more per speech than that

he's an ex president of the US and is still extremely active politically. What would you expect him to make?
Clinton is the best known man in the world. The last colorful President.
That's why the term is "rich and famous". Fame breeds wealth. Our lesser politicians can't get $500K but they do very, very well for themselves long after they have plundered the taxpayer, enriched their friends and cemented their lobbying connections.
