A lot of those guys make what they make because they are there. I think that a lot of media and sports personalities are going to see big drops in their incomes since their salaries are derived from advertising revenues. As soon as someone figures out that in the states the average worker makes so little that they can't sell them anything no matter how much they spend on advertising the bottom going to drop out of that.
I watched a news show back in the eighties and the guy they intervewed said he graduated with his MBA and was hired by a big Wall St. firm. He did not know jack, his words. He would answer the phone and buy or sell based on what he was told to do. In three years he made a million bucks. He quit and took his money because he did not believe that kind of Bull could keep going on. He said he still did not know jack. I guess he regreted quitting as it went on for 20 years. I think the head of Hydro here is a very responsible position. I suspect that compared to what they pay someone in that position in the states they probably make 1/10th or less.
