I didn't know he was "doing good", he just talked about it a lot.
I do remember he was noted for not being nearly as generous a donor as Bush was, according to tax returns.

Gore -- a director on Apple's board -- exercised an option to purchase nearly 60,000 shares of the tech giant at the bargain basement price of $7.48, costing him a total of about $445,000.
But with Apple's current market price at about $500 a share, Gore's holdings are worth $29.75 million
Sorry, I'm not aware of how this works.
If you're on the board, you can buy at "bargain basement" prices, which is actually worth tons more, while everyone else pays "market price"?

It's one of Bush's best. I thought everyone would catch the allusion. I guess he's been relegated to the dustbin of history.

Reminds me of a recent quote from PGA star Keegan Bradley. He said if they ban the belly putter he'll sue the PGA because "I've gotta put food on the table for my family." The guy has made millions. I doubt it he will have food issues.
