Can you imagine being 18 and making that kind of money. Even if the entry level is half that. Wow. You can really set yourself up for life working a decade or two. Or until the next democrat destroys it again.
I was 19 and making $16.64/hr back in 1979. Of course uncle Sam and Jimmah Cahtah made sure that they took over half of that.
I had a friend who was drafted by and played for the Washington Redskins. I was making more then he was, with my OT, on his regular annual contract. He signed 3 years for $30K, $40K, and $50k.
