How Michael Jordan Still Earns $80 Million A Year

[Field Marshall Bradley]

When the last time you seen Nike Air on a Jordan Brand shoe??? Mike single handily propelled Nike to being a shoe powerhouse it is today. Plus royalties.

Nike makes more money with a 20% Jordan Brand profit share than it does with a 60% profit share in LeBron signature shoe.

You do know the Jordan brand is a subsidiary of Nike right?

 

[Skooby]

Bingo........ Robert Johnson was so desperate for cash due to the real estate crash, MJ pretty much bought him out for 20 million cash and assuming the debt of the team.

Adding to Johnson's L, his ex-wife not only took half of his money, she shortly after the divorce, she married the judge presided over it.

At least he black....

They both would be dead if it was me.

whats your point?? You do know that Jordan Brand controls 60% of the basketball shoe market almost double Nike. These other players don't have a MJ deal and never will.

Jordan- 60m annually off shoe deal

Other Ball players- sign 10 yr deals worth 100 but see maybe 75 of that.

See the difference. Nike raping other players but eating more off Jordan even though they taking less of a cut on his deal.

There is no difference. Nike pays there endorsers according to brand power.

Jordan has the highest deal to license his image out of all athletes because his brand sells the most....

Jordan owns an insignificant amount of stock in Nike and does not get a true percentage of real profits.

Saying the jordan brand controls 60% of the shoe game is saying that NIKE controls 60% of the shoe game since they own the brand almost exclusively.....

Jordan is extremely well paid prostitute and Nike is the Pimp.

And aint nothing wrong with it. Just the way it is

Nike sells close to a billion dollars off the Jordan brand in a fiscal year and then cuts a check to Mike for 50-60 million.

Who is really getting raped here

He earns 60 million alone a year of just royalties alone. It wouldn't suprise me if Mike was worth more than that. How do they really know these athletes and entertainers worth. Either way he caked up and he done ate, his kids should eat and their kids should eat too off the shoe money alone.

What you are saying is true to a degree, out of that billion most of that goes towards overhead. You have ceos of huge corporations making less than that, and that's essentially what jordan is.

If something could turn you into Rae Caruth, this is it...
That judge was probably flirting with her during the divorce proceedings and made sure she got as much $$$ as she could... He knew he'd be caking too
