Should You Follow The Clintons And Do Your QPRT Sooner Rather Than Later?
The uproar over the Clintons doing a QPRT is a little silly. It is really a pretty plain vanilla technique. Their situation probably gives them the opportunity to do much more exciting things that probably do not leave as much of a public trail. Bill has been involved with private equity firms, which probably provide him with much greater opportunities to leverage his unified credit. I wonder if they did the QPRT to seem more like just plain folks.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
