Is
It Better To Be a Jock or a Nerd?
|
Michael
Jordan having "retired," with $40 million in endorsements, makes
$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), his contributions 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, and
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. | |
|
This
year, he'll make more than twice as much as all U.S. past presidents for all
of their terms combined. |
Amazing
isn't it? However...
|
If
Jordan saves 100% of his income for the next 450 years, he'll still have
less than Bill Gates has today. |
