I used to feel the same way that FlipMo does, and still kinda do. Do they deserve that kind of money? No, not really. But when you look at how much money the team owners make off of their performance, the athletes only want their fair share. Same goes with actors.
totally agree with that. they just want to get their fair share. but still i think 20MIL a year is way too much. wtf are u gonna do with 20MIL a year.

Good cops deserve 20MIL a year. Firemen deserve 20MIL a year. Doctors, Surgeons, ambulance drivers deserve 20MIL a year and much more.

A fucking person who throws balls in a hoop, or any other sports should receive less than 60 000$ a year. They don't put their lives on the edge, nor do they save people's lives from gunshot wounds, tumors and don't dedicate their lives to studies till they hit 40 (doctors, psychologists and more) to become something that at times just hits the 100 000$ mark. Fucking nurses should be making more than sport players.

Same goes for actors. Overpaid.

Don't tell me they deserve it either, cause your just lying to yourself.
Of course they don't deserve it, but guess what they get it. If you had the opportunity you would be doing the same thing just like if I had the chance.

We are owning the Heat on Christmas next season.
I am a Lakers fan as well but I am also realistic. They have no chance at all if all of the Heat players are healthy.

If I had the chance, I'd take that 20 MIL, and give away 19MIL of it, the last 1MIL I'd live off of. Fuck it, I'd personnaly go to fucking Cuba and give 100 000 to any poor mother taking care of 5 kids.

And to Americaz, I don't go to the games, don't watch it neither do I buy the fucking jerseys people just wear outta fashion not even to support they're team anymore, and guess what, that nurses do much more than stitch you up, maybe if you'd spend time in the hospital taking the time to care about what they do, you'd know they are essential to MDs.

I could understand that they want a piece of the pie, every bastards wants a piece of the pie nowadays, but how much pie does someone really need, seriously?

If you look at what $20 million mean in our society today and in the society of a poor country, you will realize that no man deserves to make that kind of money in a year. Doctors, cops, firemen...the feeling they get when they save a life is enough.

Seriously though, who cares how much someone makes, but i do care what someone does with their riches, and Shaq does plenty more than everyone on this board guaranteed. But that is him, he chooses and i applaude him, no big deal. It's not like he is taking away from a cop, a fireman, or a nurse. It's not like the government says we will give 1 Billion dollars out in salary this year and Shaq gets 20 Million, anyone can make that type of money. And since cops, firemen, and nurses know what they will make in their respective career, it is obvious it is not for the money.

I guess the feeling of getting a winning 3 pointer in is much more important and should be repayed for their greatness more then those that save a life. Oh silly me.

My point has been made here, very clearly.

If you want me to sum it in my own personnal 2 words, here it is.

Fuck Shaq.

To Aristotle:

No shit, they're not going there for the money, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve to be repaid for what they do, no?

But, my point is that no man deserves $20 million a year. So, I don't know what you are replying to, lol. :)

I'd do something good with the majority of the money as well, but we expect everyone to do that? Shaq does do charity work though, as do people like Bill Gates. Are you going to hate someone just because they have a lot of money? What about Oprah? She has a lot of money. Do you hate her? Sure, she does a lot for the underpriveliged, but she could do more. That lousy bitch.

And no shit about the nurses, but do I need to go through their whole job description to prove a point? I was just giving an example, not writing an essay on the nursing profession.
