The average American only makes $41,673.83 annually according to the social security online national wage index, but it is said that the average NBA player makes a stunning $4,790,000 per year. It seems crazy that the average NBA player makes more in a week than the average American does in a year, but yet they are still arguing with team owners over slight pay cuts. The NBA lockout has been all over the news for months, and it seems extremely silly that millionaires are arguing with billionaires over how to divvy up four billion dollars.

MCI signed up resellers by the dozen and let bad billings mount. When Pavlo went out into the field to dun the debtors, he found a wild and woolly world. One prepaid calling card outfit, Caribbean Telephone & Telegraph in Bloomfield Hills, Mich., signed on in early 1995. By midyear CT&T owed MCI $30 million, Pavlo says. The small firm's debt swelled faster than MCI could even track it; MCI took 60 days to get a bill out and waited another 15 days before it came due.
Many people would be ecstatic to get a raise of that caliber. That makes the new league minimum in the NFL for a one year contract increase to a staggering $450,000 (NBC). With all this talk of hundreds of thousands of dollars for one year contracts many would be quick to point out that they are paying that amount to someone who is probably sitting on the bench taking up space (Freeman). Many would argue that this is a complete waste of money. That all depends on how you feel about the player with the contract and the team that player is on.
