This really does put it into perspective though. I guess what this should teach kids is that they should forgo academics for sports, even if it requires cheating / steroids (Manny is included in the list on that site).

Didn't mean to call out your salary in a bad way... its amazing really. Hire me so I can aspire to be like you, haha.

Are you really good at math or have experience in the cryptography field? Not your basic algebraic syntax. I would need help in statistics, security engineering, symmetric key engineering, abstract algebra, etc.

I know what roughly 80% of the words that you just typed mean. Is that a pretty good display of my math skills? See how I worked numbers into my response?
All joking aside, I always enjoyed math and it was always easy to pick up on new things with it, but don't have experience in what you're discussing. Might shoot you a PM though just because I'm curious about what you work with, in case there's a way to work up to it.

I'm aspiring for 1 year.

You will need to work 2250 years in order to make Mark Teixeira's annual salary.

WOO for being in college!

240sxDann · 03-24-2010, 09:19 PM

750 years.

poolmike · 03-24-2010, 09:25 PM

It stated that there is no possible way for me to ever make that much, the world will end before I do.

lownslow95 · 03-24-2010, 09:46 PM

Since it won't let you do $0, which I'm currently making a year, I had to do $1 anual salary. The results are:
You will need to work 22,500,000 years in order to make Mark Teixeira's annual salary.

I'm ****ed.

c0nfl1kt · 03-24-2010, 09:49 PM

I think Troll would say something akin to: Don't be an idiot. Actually, idk what Troll would say, but that's what I follow. The "Do I need this?" personal question before I buy something has served me well.

No, I was selling it because the car was a waste of money.

Also, I "lose" my job in what I do quite often when contracts run up and I wait for a new one or shop for a new one.

seems like this could turn into a markley thread...

I do a lot of things. I have contracts. I complete them and I might not do anything for 2 months or 2 weeks. I make my schedule and I love it. The Mach1 was the last mistake I made. I got rid of it. Chapter closed.

Grown men playing school yard games and getting large sums of cash for it.....A GREAT world we live in. I wonder what these guys have contributed to society that makes em so deserving of the money.

mcperson2k · 03-26-2010, 02:49 AM

I sold conflict a used xbox360 and he picked it up in a beat civic/accord. Chances are he doesn't make 250k a year. Just saying.... :lol

There are millionaires who drive ****ty cars. A car does show wealth, but not everyone buys a nice car even if they can afford it.
