Chelsea Clinton gives advice to young women in a new interview published Wednesday about how they can ask for raises and advance their careers.
Clinton told Levo that she was happy when she learned that women are beginning to ask for raises at an equal rate to men.
"Its better to ask and be told no than to not ask at all, and to recognize that youre not alone," she said.
"We know that we need to do more to ensure that women are equally valuing ourselves," Clinton continued. "And we need to change the social norms and cultures within employers so that women are equally valued."
Clinton's jobs have apparently valued her quite well. Clinton was first hired at 23 by top consulting firm McKinsey & Company, earning a $120,000 annual salary. She was their youngest hire and made as much as fellow employees with MBA degrees, even though she only had a bachelor's in history.
In 2006, she moved on to work at hedge fund Avenue Capital Group, run by high-powered Democratic billionaire Marc Lasry. Lasry has contributed more than $460,000 to Democratic causes since the 1990's.
Most infamously, Clinton was hired by NBC as a special correspondent to the tune of $600,000 annually, or approximately $26,724 for every minute she was on air. Among her most probing interviews was her grilling of the Geico gecko.
Clinton serves as a member of the board of directors at Expedia, netting her $250,000 a year. Clinton also serves on the board of directors of Internet giant IAC/Interactive Corp, earning $300,000 a year. Both companies are led by Barry Diller, who coincidentally happens to be friend and a prominent fundraiser for the Clintons.
Clinton is also the Vice Chair of the Clinton Foundation. It is unclear if she ever asked her parents for a raise.

Poster Comment:
For Chelsea it took two felons who have been pulling the wool over the eyes of Arkansans, New Yorkers and the entire gullible nation. It took the money they sucked up from leftist and foreign sources and it took a legion of dead people they left behind in their wake enroute to glory.
If poor Chelsea had to rely on her looks she'd end up working at the Automat. Rumor has it that there is a bag on the nightstand and one at the breakfast table so that her purchased husband thingy doesn't have to look at her face. This leach is homelier than Amy Carter. A rapist and pedophile father and a lesbian mother.
