As Adrian Fenty spends the day getting elected, we’re reminded that he’ll be seeing some serious dosh soon. Last month, Mayor Williams proposed legislation that would give his successor a 32% pay raise. He cited the discrepancy in the administrative pay scale in which some of the Mayor’s aides make more than the actual top dog.
So today DCist asks: How will he be using his $200,000? (Also, does he remember that fiver we loaned him in 1989? Yeah, interest is a funny thing.)
>> Private school for his twin 6-year-olds costs a pretty penny. Lord knows he won’t sacrifice them to District public schools.
>> Proper neckties use more fabric, upping the Mayoral sartorial budget by at least half over the Williams’ administration.
>> Gillette Fusion 5-blade razors are now in stores. Hey, that glorious dome doesn’t just shave itself and our Mayor deserves nothing less than the latest technology. Also, powder for the glare.
>> If he plans to do all his firings via telephone, he’s going to need anytime minutes rivaling a 14-year-old girl.
>> Counseling helps Fenty battle insecurities surrounding the wealth discrepancy between himself and new BFF Michael Bloomberg.
>> BlackBerrys, so many BlackBerrys.
