11 Perks And Pitfalls Of Being President Of The United States




On the surface, being President of the United States might seem like an easy gig to some people. For others, the thought of being responsible for the well-being of over 300 million Americans might induce a heart attack! Loads of jobs place you in stressful situations and force you to make tough decisions, so taking THAT out of the equation, you might wonder, “What are some of the true pros and cons of being the leader of the free world?” Read on to discover eight of the perks and pitfalls of being the U.S. president!


Would you ever take this job? What kind of president would you be? COMMENT and let us know!











1. PERK – So many sweet rides to choose from


From Air Force One, a souped-up Boeing 747 that can refuel mid-air and serve a five-star dinner to 100 guests, to a $1.5 million Cadillac limousine that’s bulletproof and is always accompanied by a personal mechanic, being President certainly lets you ride in style.




2. PERK – Having a huge staff at your disposal


Personal trainer, world-class chefs, doctors and medical staff mere steps away — they certainly make it easy to be healthy when you’re the leader of the free world. Not to mention a White House full of servants catering to your every whim.











3. PITFALL – Presidents can’t eat anything unless it’s tasted first


While the Secret Service has never confirmed the fact, it’s widely known that the president has one or more “tasters” to prevent any food tampering. This might seem like a perk, but if the president is ever out and about and feeling peckish without a taster in tow, they can do little more than stare longingly at the food everyone else is eating.




4. PERK – Guests of the President get to stay at the luxurious Blair House


Forget the spare bedroom treatment – foreign leaders and chiefs of state get to stay in what’s known as the President’s Guest House when visiting. Aside from stunning guestrooms, Blair House features three formal dining rooms, a beauty salon, an exercise room, and two kitchens run by high-end chefs.

The worst thing about getting drunk is pretty much any decision you make while drunk.  But once in a while you get lucky and by some fluke, a messy night takes a turn for the better.   Maybe you discover a cool talent or go on an amazing drunk adventure. More likely, you discover a edible-looking hot dog lying on the sidewalk calling to you.  But whatever your drunk win is, it creates an experience so magical that alcohol-soaked you feels like the only person in the world… even though  you probably don’t remember a thing about it the next morning.  1. Your inability to stand up straight resulted in the best dance moves ever The alcohol gods are on your side when your unconscious self manages to do the worm. 2.

Can Your Ex Tell The Difference Between Adele Lyrics And Drunk Texts? This Girl Found Out!

Adele’s new song “Hello” is perfect listening for anyone who wants to unnecessarily relive the emotional trauma of having your heart shattered into a billion pieces. The song is about the failures of reconnecting with a loved one after painful years apart. If you can get through the song without having a crippling, tear-soaked breakdown, then you likely have no heart. You also might find that the lyrics are uncannily similar to a drunken text you might send your ex. Mary Caldera noticed this similarity and decided to test it out on her ex-boyfriend, Matt. Poor Matt clearly didn’t get the reference. Naturally, Matt assumed Mary was just drunk texting him, and his deadpan and confused response is brilliant. If you think Mary was cruel for texting Matt and getting his hopes up, well, she didn’t stop there. She also posted the entire exchange on Twitter, much to our delight!
