Mr. Cantor Goes to Wall Street

Hightailing it out of the United States House of Representatives after losing his reelection effort in the Republican Party primary is paying off well for uber war advocate and former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA). With four months remaining in the House term he left early, Cantor is already literally raking in his Wall Street millions. The New York Times reports the lucrative figures of Cantor’s new job at a ‘Wall Street boutique investment bank’:
Mr. Cantor will be joining Moelis & Company as vice chairman and a director on its board, the firm said on Tuesday. He is expected to serve as a senior adviser to the firm’s clients on strategic matters.
