OH NO YOU DON'T! Dominique has had to sell his Napoleon collection to pay those lawyers. Lucky he's made all this money here, he'll need it if the practicing law himself thing doesn't turn out very well. I know you're not Dominique's greatest fan, but the one tiny thing you could say in his favour is that unlike Chirac and most other politicians, he has never embezzled/stolen any state funds. He's too Bonapartiste for that. Or too aristocratic to care about money: he doesn't even carry a wallet, and his bodyguard handles all his expenses. While Tony travels around pocketing several hundred thousand per speech, Dominique only accepted reimbursement for the plane fare and the hotel stay from Harvard when he lectured there. Not sure about his latest speeches, but hopefully this auction will make sure he never degrades himself into turning up just for the opening of an envelope.
