underdog Posted April 9, 2003 Michael Jordan made over $300,000/game: $10,000 a minute, assuming he averaged about 30 minutes per game. Assuming $40 million in endorsements, he made $178,100 a day (working or not)! Assuming he slept 7 hrs a night, he made $52,000 every night. If he goes to a movie, he'll pay $7.00, but he'll make $18,550. 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 you were given a tenth of a penny for every dollar he made, you'd be living comfortably at $65,000 a year. In one year, he made more than 2X as much as 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. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
