(Received this from a friend.  If you get bored, I'll just point out
that it's the last statement that's so interesting.   Larry)
 
Jordan will make over $300,000 a game, $10,000 a minute assuming he
averages about 30 minutes a game.
 
Assuming $40 mil 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 Independence Day, 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 1/2 day.
 
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.
 
A quickie will net him $1855.
 
He'll probably pay around $200 for a nice round of golf, but will be
'reimbursed' $33,390 for that round.
 
He could take 1/100,000th of his income and buy some poor college
student 5200 packages of Ramen.
 
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.
 
*** And something to cheer you up after all of this...
 
Jordan will only have to have this income for ***270 more years*** to
have a net worth equivalent to that of Bill Gates. . . .
