    it is shocking and sickening that society places such a high value on them.
    If you were one of only 800 people who could do a particular job that was in high demand, you'd command such a salary as well.

      I understand that, but IMO the value it gives society is nowhere near commensurate with the pay it garners.

        I don't know. How many millions of people felt elated for several days (and some continue to feel the elation) after the Cubs won, compared to how people feel after paying a plumber $500 to fix a clogged sink?
        And, I'm not slamming plumbers/laborers at all. I value their work.

          You would also command a big pay raise if you could get 35,000 - 50,000 people to pay $40 to watch you work.

            $40? lol.
            I live in New York, so I know we're used to paying more, but where the hell can you get an average ticket for $40? A beer costs at least $12 at Yankee Stadium, parking costs almost $30

              FYI, currently on StubHub there's $15 tickets (after fees) for several regular season games at Yankee Stadium, including the entire 3 day series against the Blue Jays 5/1/2017 - 5/3/2017. Snatch those bad boys up now.

                This is not news. I want 400 million over 10 years as well. Preferably delivered weekly in $770,000 cash increments by a nude Emmy Rossum along with a fine Opium Pipe and a Glenlivet 25. It's not gonna happen but I'd like it too. Like Bryce and John Lennon, I too am a dreamer. But my thing has as much of a chance of happening as Bryce getting 400 million and all the people living life in peace.
                I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too

                      So do I, but nobody's calling me back.
                      The future is in the hands of a man who has none.
