went by, the next round in the MSM regarded how suspicious it was for FOX's ranch to be so luxurious and where did he get the cash?!1 Although this first link below says it isn't moreso than the pads of others in the ranks of the fabulously rich Mexican upper class.

http://www.iht.com/articles/2007/09/28/america/mexico.php.... Questions began to surface about whether Fox had used his position to enrich himself after Quién, a celebrity magazine, published photographs of the newly renovated ranch. It was a ramshackle affair with modest furnishings before he took office.
Fox's ranch is not luxurious compared with the estates of many wealthy and influential Mexicans, but the transformation raised suspicions in a country where power often goes hand in hand with corruption. Other former presidents amassed immense fortunes in office, historians say. ....
Though Fox was a highly paid executive at Coca-Cola, he is said to have drained his savings while he was a congressman and state governor for the conservative National Action Party. One sign of this was the run-down condition of his family farm, Korrodi said. ....

At the White House, the president has got to be muttering "some friend" when he pores over the new autobio from his old buddy Vicente Fox, Mexico's former leader. That's because Fox raps his border pal as stubborn and "the cockiest guy I have ever met in my life." Revolution of Hope, out next month, is a well-written, well-researched book about Fox's political career and presidency, which coincided with George W. Bush's. While he expresses a kinship with W, he breaks with the prez on the war and slams the GOP's immigration platform. He blames Bush's stubbornness on Iraq for bad international relations, calls his Spanish "grade-school level," and admits he didn't think Bush would ever become president. "I can't honestly say that I had ever seen George W. Bush getting to the White House," he pens.
