I heard Bill Clinton speak at a fundraiser for a healthcare non-profit (see my comment above for a more detailed description). The organization paid Clinton $100,000+ to speak (this was 10 years ago at least) and then sold tickets for $100+ for the speech and for thousands of dollars to a private dinner. IIRC it was a very successful fundraiser for them and they netted several hundred thousand dollars.
