Michael Jordan made over $300,000 a game. That equals
$10,000 a minute, at an average of 30 minutes per game. With
$40 million in endorsements, he made $178,100 a day, working
or not.
If he sleeps 7 hours a night, he makes $52,000 every night
while visions of sugarplums dance in his head. If he goes
to see a movie, it'll cost him $7.00, but he'll make $18,550
while he's there. If he decides to have a 5 minute egg, he'll
make $618 while boiling it.
He makes $7,415/hr more than minimum wage. He'll make $3,710
while watching each episode of Friends. If he wanted to save
up for a new Acura NSX ($90,000) it would take him a whole
12 hours.
If someone were to hand him his salary and endorsement money,
they would have to do it at the rate of $2.00 every second.
He'll probably pay around $200 for a nice round of golf, but
will be reimbursed $33,390 for that round.
Assuming he puts the federal maximum of 15% of his income
into a tax deferred account (401k), he will hit the federal
cap of $9500 at 8:30 a.m. on January 1st.
If you were given a penny for every 10 dollars he made, you
'd be living comfortably at $65,000 a year.
He'll make about $19.60 while watching the 100 meter dash
in the Olympics. He'll make about $15,600 during the Boston
Marathon.
While the common person is spending about $20 for a meal in
his trendy Chicago restaurant, he'll pull in about $5600.
In his last year, he made more than twice as much as all U.S.
past presidents for all of their terms combined. Amazing isn't
it? Keep reading!!!!
BUT.....
If Jordan saves 100% of his income for the next 250 years,
he'll still have less than Bill Gates has today. Game over.
Nerd wins.
A pessimist sees the difficulty
in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in
every difficulty.
