THE NERD WINSMichael Jordan makes over $300,000 a game. That equals $10,000 a minute, at an
average 30 minutes per game. With $40 million in endorsements, he 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 over minimum wage.
If he wanted to save up for a new Acura NSX ($90,000) it would take him a whole
12 hours.Assuming he puts the federal maximum of 15% 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.This year, he'll make more than twice as much as all U.S. past presidents for
all of their terms combined..AND.....If you think that was amazing think, about this.....If Jordan saves 100%
of his income for the next 250 years, he'll still have less than Bill Gates had
today.Game over. The nerd wins.
