NERDS vs JOCKS

 In answer to the eternal question "Is it better to be
 a jock or a nerd?" I submit the following:

 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 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 (after the
 wage hike)

 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 his tax deferred account (401k), he will
 hit the federal cap of $9500 for such accounts at
 8:30 a.m. on January 1st, 1997.

 If you were given a tenth of a penny for every dollar
 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.He'll make about $15,600 while
 the Boston Marathon is being run.

 While the common person is spending about $20 for a
 meal in his trendy Chicago restaurant, he'll pull in
 about $5600.

 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! NERDS RULE! NERDS RULE!
