payday for Johnny Depp

[VitaMan]

He got fired from his current project, but the project proponent will still pay him over
$ 10 million in salary.



Is there any other industry besides the entertainment industry that does this ?

Bobby..... fucking..... Bonilla....

The calendar has turned to July 1, and that means one thing: It's time for Mets fans everywhere to wish each other a Happy Bobby Bonilla Day! Why? On Wednesday, 57-year-old Bobby Bonilla will collect a check for $1,193,248.20 from the New York Mets, as he has and will every July 1 from 2011 through 2035.
In 2000, the Mets agreed to buy out the remaining $5.9 million on Bonilla's contract.

However, instead of paying Bonilla the $5.9 million at the time, the Mets agreed to make annual payments of nearly $1.2 million for 25 years starting July 1, 2011, including a negotiated 8% interest.

My brother was telling me Tony Romo still collects a huge check from the Cowboys every though he decided to retire instead of facing/mentoring Dak Prescott.
