想知道前国家领导人离任后的生活吗？
Former presidents and prime ministers don't necessarily disappear from the public eye after leaving office. Some, like Bill Clinton, turn their names into a money-spinning brand, give speeches and write books about themselves, while others work in art and charity work. Take a look at what some former leaders have been seen doing in their post-politics life.
Barack Obama
Vacationer Barack Obama can still make headlines even though the whole world is closely watching the new American president Donald Trump. Obama was recently seen enjoying his life, hanging out with British billionaire Richard Branson. Hiding out at a small island, the former president got himself away from the politics in Washington. 
David Cameron
The former British prime minister's post-Downing Street days appear to be dining casually in cafes, playing with his daughter in playgrounds and drinking coffee with old friends. To keep himself busy, Cameron took an unpaid role at the National Citizens Service Trust, a charity organization that aims to help the youth. Reports also said that he is writing a book about his political career.
George W. Bush
George W. Bush was seldom seen by the public. There are reports that he has been tapping his artistic talents, turning himself into a painter. The theme of his paintings is about food for thought. However, last November, the former president posted a picture of himself painting portraits of wounded soldiers in service during his time in office.
