Wall Street has made Hillary Clinton a millionaire
http://money.cnn.com/2015/10/13/investing/hillary-clinton-wall-street/

"Clinton made $3.15 million in 2013 alone from speaking to firms like Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank and UBS, according to the list her campaign released of her speaking fees."

The Clintons' web of wealth
http://america.aljazeera.com/opinions/2014/6/hillary-bill-clintonwealthspeakerfees.html

"The Wall Street payments were significant in that they represented a form of gratitude not only for Bill Clinton’s deregulation of Wall Street. That year Hillary Clinton, now a senator from New York, voted for a bankruptcy bill that made it much harder for people to qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy; the bill was backed primarily by banks and credit card issuers."
