Michael Jordan once turned down $100,000,000 for 2-hour appearance
Michael Jordan曾經拒絕過一場出席兩小時1億鎂的邀約
A $100M payday is indeed considered life-changing money for most people. But
if you’re worth $2.1 billion like basketball icon Michael Jordan, you have
the luxury of turning down such lucrative opportunities.
對於許多人來說，1億鎂會被認為是改變人生的金錢。但是若你是像Michael Jordan那樣，
身價21億，或許就可以有那樣的豪氣去拒絕可以拿到大筆銀兩的機會。
In an appearance on WFAN’s Boomer and Gio radio program on Sunday, MJ’s
agent David Falk shared how Michael Jordan once said no to a two-hour
appearance that would have netted him a cool $100,000,000 payout.
在星期天的廣播節目上，MJ的經紀人David Falk在節目上分享了一個有關MJ拒絕了一次只
要出席兩小時就可以賺1億鎂的機會。
“I brought him a deal three years ago for $100 million. All he had to do
was, other than giving his name and likeness, make a one two-hour appearance
to announce the deal and he turned it down,” Falk shared.
「三年前我幫他找到了一個合約，價值1億鎂，而他所要做的，不用給簽名或肖像權，只要
到那邊出席，兩個小時，宣布這個合約就好，但是他拒絕了，」Falk說。
“God bless him. He’s been so successful, it gives him an opportunity to do
whatever the hell he wants or not to do things he doesn’t want. I really
admire that. He’s very, very selective in the things he wants to be involved
in,” he furthered.
「上帝保佑他，他一直都如此成功，所以這讓他有這樣的機會去做他想做的，然後也可以
不去做他不想做的，我真的很欣羨他。他對於他想做的事情都非常審慎，」Falk說。
Even before he accumulated his now immense wealth, Michael Jordan has been
extremely picky on which brands to partner with. Jordan has lent his image to
big-time companies over the years but has also denied a lot of prospects that
do not fit in with his image.
即使在他累積他目前的財富之前，MJ對於他要代言的廠牌就已經非常挑剔的了。過去這些
年，他與一些大公司有簽約，但是他也拒絕了許多跟他形象不合的潛在公司。
To be fair, a $100,000,000 check for two hours of work would be a no-brainer
for almost everyone. However, money isn’t really a motivator for Michael
Jordan these days.
持平的說，一張1億鎂的支票，只要出席兩個小時，這對許多人來說大概不用腦子就知道怎
麼選的。然而，對於現在的MJ來說，金錢不是主要的動機。
Apart from his numerous investments, Jordan rakes in around the same amount
annually from royalties with the Jordan Brand.
除了他其他眾多的投資外，Jordan光從他的Jordan牌，每年就可以收到那樣金額的權利
金。
It is worth noting that Michael Jordan also opted to give his entire salary
from the Washington Wizards in 2001 to the victims of the September 11
attacks. He will also donate all his proceeds from “The Last Dance”
documentary.
更值得注意的是，MJ在911攻擊發生後，就把他2001年在巫師時的薪水全部捐給受害的
人，他也把這次從紀錄片"The Last Dance"所得到的錢全數捐給慈善單位。
