This is someone that lives in a bubble that is a protected class

He wins he becomes wealthy ... he loses he is still wealthy

He doesn't care what happens, he's always going to have money thrown at him. Winning an election and becoming PM was just a bonus if things had worked out but no matter the result, he still ends up with millions and a generous pension.

He is also a discipline of Stephen Harper who is involved in deep dark international politics now and making a fortune. Chances are, that is where PP will end up in the next few years or decades.

Right, but it has to hurt his pride and sense of worth even just a little bit, no? Please, I need this.

This guy secured a government pension by the time most people are still trying to get their footing financially. He's also never created anything of value as a career politician. At the very least Justin Trudeau was a drama teacher and snowboard instructor. Carney has had multiple 'grown up' jobs. I wouldn't feel bad for PP.
