   Yes, in general most people with any chance to be President have to   
   be wealthy to begin with - theoretically not required but almost   
   impossible to accomplish otherwise - and then the job is normally   
   very stressful and they make a lot less money doing it than they   
   probably made in their other working options.   
      
   About the only person the job isn't hard on would be one who enjoys   
   the power and celebrity without really caring that much if they change   
   anything or not..   
      
   (IMHO)    B)   
      
   I hear that Trump Junior is kicking around the idea of running   
   once the old man is out of the way...  The legacy lives on..  B)
