jealous? Jc, you're the one complaining about a woman who is getting money for nothing as you see it. I am simply stating that nobody "deserves" that much money. It is ludicrous to think that they do when there are people who go without the basics.
I don't deserve the money any more or less than anyone else. it's money. who cares?

I think he was essentially saying if it comes down to it, who should be paid more, a singer/model, or a teacher? My honest opinion would be the teacher too - the "stars" get FAR too much money.
800+ million? Who NEEDS that much? That would be over 800 people with a million dollars.. I get by on $50 k and think I am doing just fine - split up that 800+ million into 50k and give it to that many poor people who are working harder cleaning our toilets and vomit - now THAT would be fair... But to quibble over 25 mill with that much...
Harry and I have been together 2 years. That is long enough for me to think he is half of this partnership - shouldn't he get something if we split? S'far as I am concerned - he DID marry her, golddigger or not. They had a kid together, a life together - why shouldn't she get a portion of what they had together? Its not like it is hurting him any... and it makes a better life for their daughter. Yeah - it isn't child support, but it DOES create a larger atmosphere of wealth for their child (and omg - how much wealth do they, any of them, need?)

I love the Beatles as much as the next gal (ask Harry - he downloaded a bunch for me, and like most males, isn't as enamored for some reason). But STILL - have you TRIED to be a teacher? of ENGLISH? It is like going through a war zone! There should be hazard pay! Seriously!
(He always was my fave Beatle, btw) But really - I think the point is, how much money does ANYONE like that need... I think he might need a bit more just for protection, etc... but 800+ mill? On the other side, doesn't he also give a good bit away to charity every year?

ok. i think i will bow out of this thread before it hits a sore spot with me... this hits too close to home for me to even be able to give an unbiased opinion.

You can if you want, JC... but I think if it is a sore spot, even explaining might be hard?

Teachers are way underpaid, I'm not going to disagree with that. That being said, you're comparing apples to oranges. If you can produce material that entertains millions of people, you will be paid millions. Many would argue that professional athletes are grossly overpaid but they generate a lot more money than they are paid, in many cases. It's all about what the market will bear. As it relates to this thread, I'd say that Heather Mills was overpaid for three and a half years of marriage.
