I have a friend whose nephew is a bench player in Major League Baseball. His salary last year was just under $600K.
Mike Trout made $18 million. In sports, as in life, that’s just the way it is.
I know a school teacher in MA who is pretty upset that Tom Brady makes tens of millions of dollars for throwing a football around. She feels her work is far more important, and if anyone is going to be paid tens of millions of dollars, it should be her.
I’ve tried to tell her that life in unfair, but she thinks it shouldn’t be.
