Is it better to be a jock or a nerd?:

Michael Jordan will make over $300,000 a game: $10,000 a minute,
assuming he averages about 30 minutes per game.
Assuming $40 million in endorsements next year, he'll be making
$178,100 a day (working or not)!
Assuming he sleeps 7 hours a night, he makes $52,000 every night.
If he goes to see a movie, it'll cost him $7.00, but he'll make
$18,550 while he's there.
He makes $7,415/hr more than minimum wage (after the wage hike)
If he wanted to save up for a new Acura NSX ($90,000) it would take
him 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.
Assuming he puts the federal maximum of 15% of his income into his
tax deferred account (401k), he will hit the federal cap of $9500 for
such accounts at 8:30 am on January 1st, 1997.
If you were given a tenth of a penny for every dollar he made, you'd
be making $65,000 a year.
Next year, he'll make more than twice as much as all of our past
presidents for all of their terms combined.
Amazing isn't it?  BUT:
JORDAN WILL HAVE TO SAVE 100% OF HIS INCOME FOR 270 YEARS TO HAVE A
NET WORTH EQUIVALENT TO THAT OF BILL GATES.
NERDS RULE!
