    Jock vs Nerds

    ------Jocks vs Nerds----

    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.

    $$$ Game over. Nerd wins.
