Can you imagine

earning $20-30 million a year? This just struck me when I went to get more water at work and Pres. Obama was on TV talking about CEOs who basically decide their own worth.

I realize you grow to that kind of money, where it doesn't seem like a lot.  But I can't imagine regularly bringing in that kind of money.  I'd get bored of it, I think.  After you've got the house, the cars, the designer clothing... I think I'd get tired of having everyone do everything for me.

    It's unimaginable to me so I can't even say that I would get tired of it.  It's just TOO much $ for one person to make.

    Sometimes I wish I could make what some of my clients have as federal withholding on their w-2s.

    I cannot imagine making $100k a year between MH and I let alone 20-30 million a year!  I think it's ridiculous that people make that kind of money.

    Seriously, if I made 20 million in one year I would never have to work again!

    It would be like winning a major lotto jackpot.

    It's just crazy to think about earning that much money in one year! Granted most of it is usually in stock options...but still!

    That's what I thought, Mandy/Jen.  Okay, so we all dream of hitting the lottery and winning that kind of money, but EARNING that kind of money year after year?  I can't even comprehend it being normal to see your tax forms and realize how much you made and EXPECT THAT AGAIN the following year.

    It's completely unimaginable to me that someone would pay me that much money.  I will say, that I have a lot of respect for Bill Gates and his wife who decided to donate so much of their fortune to charities.
