If you are referring to his former ties with Halliburton the answer is nothing. By law he had to get rid of all stocks or other ties to that company as there would be a conflict of interest with his position and their being a gov't contractor. That goes for all of Cheney's holdings. Any contracts, stocks, bonds, etc. that can earn money for Cheney had to be eliminated if there would be a conflict of interest.
However, he certainly has friends that have benefitted incredibly from the fiasco in Iraq and I am sure they will help him out - financially - should he need it after he is out of office. The whole gov't is a giant scam where big corporations bribe the politicians (ok, they make campaign donations, same difference), and the elected politicos do the corporations bidding. Sad but true.

Nothing. In fact, it cost him money to make up the difference in taxes for the millions of dollars he has donated to charity as a result of the stock options he received from Halliburton upon his resignation.

The same as the rest of the politicians in Washington DC, Republican and Democrat alike, who own stock in Halliburton and various other oil compaines.

Too much to spend in his lifetime.
All of the blood and sweat of our military and iraqi civilians.
