You think the guy that makes picks in a 70s Atlantic City faux-guido shark costume based on how he felt rolling out of bed in the morning, and the guy who lets a goldfish make picks, really care about the authenticity of the gambling content?
That's not enough to survive in NYC. I'd like to think Erica takes care of them. It would be very difficult to have a second job and still do barstool
I’d imagine it starts at around $50-$60k but it probably leaps in fairly large percentages annually for a few years. They can’t be making big bucks. As far as I can tell, everyone except Erika, Dave, Big Cat, PFT, KFC, Kmarko, Large, and Willie have roommates. I mean Feitelberg still has roommates and he’s in his 30’s, has been there forever, and came up with SAFTB.
Can’t wait until these guys follow this dudes picks and he goes like 0-11. or what would have happened if they did unveil this “secret twitter” and the dude went 0-11 when Dave and BC started following
She has no incentive to take care of them. It’s supply and demand. You have very few positions and a ton of young dudes looking for a spot. They can fire and re-hire in a second, especially considering onboarding isn’t some intense process. If someone leaves due to pay, there will be 500 more clamoring to take that spot. And it’s not exactly highly skilled labor. Most of these guys aren’t valuable until they actually provide value to the company...at which point they’re actually incentivized to stay. Until then, it’s an audition more than anything else.
I work with a cousin of of Frankies. She says (and this worked its way up to grandma and then back down to my coworker to be transparent) that Frankie - who is not Jack Mac but also not Feitelberg - makes 120k.
He’s been there a long time, involved in the pizza reviews, and is now on one of their most successful podcasts. That makes sense
We have to keep in context that they live in NYC so I imagine what they're paid is going to be inflated also.
They've said on multiple media that the general "starting salary" for content people is "about" $60k and then a lot of incentive-based bonuses like getting paid based on ad revenues on their stuff and the number of things bought through their blogs, shows, etc.
You are also looking at apartments in good areas being 5-6k/month. Roommates suck but if you are in prime areas of Manhattan it’s not as wild.
Going back to conversation about who makes what...does Grinnell (or even RA) get anything off the pink Whitney line?
I loved the ellie stream but There’s no way she wasn’t embellishing right? Maybe I’m wrong but I feel like anyone born here has at least a basic grasp of the rules of baseball
Either that or she is brain dead. My wife might’ve watched 5 minutes of a hockey game before she met me. The first time she watched a game with me she was able to figure out the game almost immediately, minus the icing calls and line changes. Now baseball is even easier to grasp and follow. There is no way she could be that oblivious.
My girlfriend thinks foul balls out of play should count as home runs because they were hit so far the defense couldn’t get to them
A man of honor and integrity. You think the burger boy, the hick or the cowboy react the same way? Rico Ryder
