Arnold Schwarzenegger on Donating His Gubernatorial Salary

In this video, Arnold Schwarzenegger discusses his decision to donate his salary while serving as the Governor of California. He explains that because he already had significant personal wealth from his film career, where he earned between $20 and $30 million per movie, he felt it was important to give back to the public rather than keep the government pay. He describes the salary as "petty cash" in comparison to his earnings and emphasizes the importance of using his position to contribute to society.

Managing a city is a lot harder than just giving money to people. Try it, you gave money and there's more homelessness now.

What a filthy european mindset he still has. Taking care of other people in society, how dare he. Obvious sarcasm is obvious, but as 20% of the yanks cant even read, i guess i should make it clear

"America gave me everything that I have, so it's time to give something back" That's what an immigrant mindset should be.
