Humor: Jock or Nerd?

[Guest guest]

Is it better to be a Jock or a Nerd?

 

Let's consider Michael Jordan, having " retired, " 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/hour 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 maximum of 15%

of his income into a tax deferred account (401k), his contributions will

hit the federal cap of $10,500 at 8:45 AM 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 Olympic 100 meter dash 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 500 years,

he'll still have less than Bill Gates has at this very moment.

 

Game over. Nerd wins.
