Two days before being sworn in as governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger accepted an $8 million dollar consulting job from American Media Inc, a publisher of various health and fitness magazines. California law allows elected officials to keep side jobs. The contract only asks that Arnold make himself available after the regular workday or on weekends. Not a bad part time gig.
A considerable amount of the ad space in these magazines are filled by performance enhancing supplements, so you can guess what happened when legislation landed on his desk that would have regulated these supplements. He red-lined it. You see, if supplement peddlers make money, AMI makes money, so Arnold makes money. A quite nice little circle jerk, and as for the kids, fuck 'em.
Like the title says, at least he stays bought.
