"Being a politician" is in the active sense, like Congressional
members profiting from "insider" information that the public is not
aware of, which could be useful in selecting stocks...I believe this
happened in early Covid days.
A retired president may have daily access to security briefs, etc. I
think POTUS can allow or disallow this. But if allowed, a retired
president might make some bucks off of this info.
At the State level, this has happened for years, and still happening.
