And no I wouldn't be this fricking stupid if I made this kind of money. I wouldn't wear a different pair of shoes every day, or flaunt cash on social media because that's not me. I'd invest, I'd be smart with it and I'd plan for the future of my family.


Ahhh, the classic someone telling someone what they would do in a situation they have never been close to being in...

Even if he does wear a new pear of shoes every single day, that's pennies to him. Let's say the average cost per pair is $250( just making up a number) that would be $91,250. That's 0.091% of this years earnings....(before taxes obviously)

For comparison, let's say someone making 80k per year dropped $500 on shoes for the entire year. That's 0.625% of earnings, so more than if Floyd wore a new pair every day

And just to show how crazy that much money is, it would take someone making $150k per year 700 fricking years to pull in $105MM
