It can't be. Fifty million for an offensive guard"s compensation package. I am sure he's talented. One in million maybe.

One twisted ankle or hurt shoulder and he's traded away from the championship team to our local team, the also ran's.

We believe a lot of received wisdom about money. One is that's in the American Economy there is no cap on opportunity. If one person makes their-self valuable, and someone will pay them plenty, no one else is hurt by it and there's money a plenty for everyone.

But fifty million for an offensive guard? What if there's only so much money and what if money is real and the received wisdom that there's no cap on opportunity is a myth.

Who is hurt if an offensive guard is paid fifty million dollars?
