Former First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama recently collected a whopping $750,000 check to give a speech on diversity and inclusion. This speaking engagement was held at the Bits & Pretzels Founder Festival in Germany on Sept. 25. It was reportedly held on the sidelines of the annual Oktoberfest beer festival.
The 59-year-old has been highly requested by participants for years and conference organizers were very eager to have her speak. The hefty fee of 700,000 euros, the equivalent of $741,000 U.S. dollars, was one of the highest fees they had ever paid.
It is no surprise that Michelle Obama is in high demand. After serving two consecutive terms as the first Black U.S. president and first lady from January 2009 to January 2017, as noted by Daily Mail, she has become an inspirational figure for many.
Recently, questions have been raised about Obama potentially becoming an alternative candidate to Joe Biden for the 2024 presidential race. However, the author and attorney has repeatedly denied any desire to seek office. This has not stopped high-level Democrats from rallying to President Biden's reelection, as they fear the potential alternative of Kamala Harris and the re-election of Donald Trump.
Regardless of her political ambitions, Michelle Obama remains an inspiring figure for many. Her speaking engagement at the Bits & Pretzels Founder Festival is just another example of her commitment to advocating for diversity and inclusion.
