Interesting comparison . . . both the best at what they do (did) -- and compensated as such -- in our great free market economy.
With respect to the huge difference in their respective wealth -- many people have a hard time understanding the difference between a million and a billion.
If a single playing card equals 1 million dollars -- you'd need about 20 decks to equal a billion dollars.
I saw that in an email joke going around in 1996. I printed it out and still have it somewhere. The title was "Is it better to be a jock or a nerd." I think that is why they reference the show Friends as well.
And since Bill Gates is now worth ~$56 BILLION, if MICHAEL saved everything for NINE HUNDRED YEARS, he still would be short of Mr. Gates! UNREAL.
STAY HEALTHY!

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
