I saw this picture, and thought it was pretty interesting.

How long do you have to spend at work to make $1,000?

That's from last week's time Magazine if you care. Incredibly good one, it was all about statistics in America, from population, religious affiliation, perspective on God, demographics, how we spend our time, and so forth. I found that tab interesting as well.

Ah. You read Time too? Yeah, I know. I scanned it in. I did think it was interesting. I liked the "Purple America" section.

I really liked that. Interesting.

My favorites: "Howard Stern: 24 seconds"

"Janitor: 103 hours"

Well thats cause Howard Stern is ####ing awsome.

Now you take Frank Welsh, the janitor at the nearest medium sized company, he's not very interesting at all.

But none that make 1000 dollars in 24 seconds.

Hah!

>_>

Howard Stern is a dip. He doesn't deserve that kind of money. He doesn't even do any work. He just makes incredibly stupid comments. Janitors, on the other hand, keep the toilets clean in the places you relieve yourself. And that's far more valuable than hosting a radio show... if you ask me.

Or playing tennis. Or acting.

I know a janitor who used to be a drummer in a very succesful band...I can't remember their name but they were famous...

I can't believe the amount of money Howard stern makes.

24 seconds = 1,000 dollars
240 second (4 minutes) = 10,000
40 minutes = 100,000
400 minutes or 6 hours and (approximently) 35 minutes = 1,000,000 DOLLARS

That money is just... uncomprehendable. How many hours does this guy work a day? At the very least he earns 1 mil every two days.

Yeah, that was in Time. I couldn't believe it but then it hit me, it was true.
