Dude's salary up till 2009 was $24,000 a year. Helps to know a guy, who knows a guy, who knows a guy…

Another peculiarity of the president is his fear of being poisoned. Because of this, he has had greenhouses built in his compound, designed to mimic twenty climatic zones. The idea is that anything Yanukovych wants to eat can be brought to his table directly from his own farm.
Guilty conscience, perhaps?
UPDATE: Pictures of the mansion Yanukovych built with his looted millions. More here. And here.
