John Edwards' Mistresses Are Expensive

Apparently admitting to adultery has not hurt John Edwards' market value. Edwards is scheduled to emerge from seclusion soon and return to the public speaking circuit. And, he is now charging a larger fee than ever before.

The Chicago Sun-Times reports the former vice presidential candidate will speak to a student organization at the University of Illinois October 14. His price — $65,000. That's $10,000 more than his pre-adultery rate.

A university spokeswoman says the student group did give the former North Carolina senator the opportunity to back out of the engagement in light of his extramarital embarassments. But the speech is still scheduled to be delivered, focusing on "the American dream."
