Washington United Press International reports Billy Carter could make about 500000 this year from public appearances and endorsements at 5000 per event, far exceeding President Carter's 200000 salary plus expense allowance. The piece also notes the family's peanut business, a 9 million annual gross, and Billy's 5000 weekly beer sales at a gas station. It contrasts with the President's federal pay and outlines related musical news and ticket details.
