Need some money? Run for president.

It’s been nearly three years since she was the shortest-lived vice presidential candidate in history, but a hybrid PAC made in support of Carly Fiorina is alive and well.
Carly for America, formed in March 2016, has outlasted the candidate it supported and continued to spend through the end of 2018. The committee dropped $784,782 in the 2018 cycle — and more than $100,000 over the last calendar year — none of which was spent on independent expenditures supporting or opposing any federal candidates.
Instead, the PAC has spent thousands on extraneous activities, including an estimated $5,488 on Uber rides, $2,994 worth of trips to Fox News alumni-founded Style Me Bar for “hair and makeup consulting” and “styling services” and a combined $5,880 to Trump Tower in December 2016 when Fiorina met with President-elect Donald Trump to discuss the job of director of national intelligence.
The PAC paid Ikea $6,261 for furniture in January 2018 and paid Pottery Barn more than $2,000 for furniture in May 2018. In September 2017, the PAC paid $700 for food at Charlie Palmer Steak House and more than $900 at Benjamin Steak House in May 2017.

But this is strictly welfare for the well born. You need to look presidential and be a complete sell out to pull it off. But for any rising professional women out there -- it's worth considering.
