Many a man has $1M dollars today but knows that it's too much to just give away. That was real money back then.
He's got atleast another million in the bank, more than likely more
You know how many times they've sold their companies and cashed out huge paydays?

Joan: We know she owns 5 percent of SC&P, which by Roger's calculation would net her "a little over one and a half million." Or, more specifically, $1,657,500, which in today's dollars is about $10.4 million.
Pete: He owns 10 percent of the company, which makes his take $3,315,000 — or about $20.8 million today.
Ted and Jim: According to Pete, Ted owns 20 percent of SC&P, which means Jim probably does, too. So they each made $6,630,000 in the sale. Adjusted for inflation, this is approximately $41.6 million.
Roger, Don, and Bert's estate: Let's assume for our purposes that Roger, Don, and Bert owned equal parts of Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce when the firm merged with Cutler, Gleason, and Chaough last season (and that Bert's ownership has not yet been redistributed). That would mean each owns 15 percent of SC&P, which would make their takes $4,972,500 each. Or, in 2014, $31.2 million.
Harry: Since he didn't complete his paperwork in time, he owns a 0 percent stake in SC&P, which makes his share of the sale $0. (Adjusted for inflation: $0.)
Pete: He owns 10 percent of the company, which makes his take $3,315,000 — or about $20.8 million today.

Why do they keep introducing new characters?

Good point. I routinely give away a quarter of what I own because there's always more. I'm sure actual wealthy people do it all the time.

The price of a divorce is twice what he paid percentage wise

Because it's a tv show. It's what they do.

I wish I had some serious money for you to manage, Doc. Good to know that you'd thrown $1M into a fire as long as I was loaded enough.
And that episode sucked dick.

IT WAS A DIVORCE SETTLEMENT.
It wasn't a fricking bonus check he gave because his wallet got too heavy

You guys made a stupid argument and are try to prop it up. I don't know what the frick a divorce to some Canadian space-cadet would have cost a guy worth $6M or so bucks in 1970-1971, but the show certainly wasn't trying to make the point that he was catching a break. Seemed like a very Draperesque caprice.

WTF is Olberman talking about
Posted on 4/12/15 at 10:06 pm to La Place Mike
