How did MacArthur afford to live at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel?

Answer:
Conrad Hilton was an admirer of General MacArthur's. Hilton offered MacArthur a suite at the Waldorf Towers for $450 a month. I do not know if that amount was ever renegotiated, since it was a good deal in 1951, and would have been even a better deal in 2000 when Mrs. MacArthur died.
