In May 2014 (three months after the coup), his son Hunter Biden became a board member of Burisma Holdings Ltd., a very large oil and gas company, from which he resigned in 2019 when his father was running for president. He was being paid $83,000 plus a month or $1 million per year from 2014 as a board member. This compensation was halved after his father ceased to be vice president in January 2017, when Donald Trump became president.
