Green co-boss Robert Habeck counts himself among the “top earners” - and makes no secret of what he does with a large part of his savings.
Top politicians equal top salary?
The
Greens co-boss Robert Habeck *
is one of the “top earners” thanks to his party salary.
"I know that this is a very, very good salary and that I am one of the top earners," he said a few months ago to the
Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung
(
FAS)
.
According to the newspaper, his salary is a little below the diet of a member of the Bundestag.
And these, in turn, as
NTV.de reported
on the occasion of the newspaper report published in May, are “currently 10,083 euros plus a flat fee”.

The
Green politician had also spoken to the
FAS
on the subject of
investments
at the
time.
"Essentially, I'm paying off the loan on our house," he said.
He had checked a rescheduling because of the lower interest rates, but this was "not worthwhile" in his case.
In the interview, he also revealed a savings tip from his student days.
“Eat everything.
What is cooked is eaten, ”he said, according to the newspaper.
“And when you're full, you save it for the next day.” He gets in a bad mood when someone doesn't finish his pizza crust.
Therefore, he was always "the trash can of the family".

After Habeck was
elected head of the Greens
together with
Annalena Baerbock, member of
the Bundestag, at the beginning of 2018
, he had to give up his ministerial office in Schleswig-Holstein - that's what the rules of the Greens want.
Since then, the party leader has been
without
office or
mandate
.
He wants to change that - and move into the Bundestag in 2021.
