Drake Rains $50,000 in the Club, How Much Money is that in Your Salary? We do the Math.

Drake continues to be an idiot or maybe not.

The MC was at a club in Charlotte and managed to spend $50,000…by making it rain.

I tried to stretch my imagination and come up with some kind of rationale that would make me throw $50,000 in the air for a bunch of people to grab.  Forget the fact that picking up ones from the ground is degrading…money is money.  If you throw $50,000 in the air, I think I’m picking up as many bills as I can.  I will feel bad about myself later.

This was something that Drake had planned before he arrived as he showed up with the money in cardboard boxes.  He literally threw $50,000 one dollar bills as it appears from the picture.  The floor was literally covered in money when it was all said and done.

BUT HE’S RICH…RIGHT?

Yes Drake is wealthy.  In fact he’s worth an estimated $25 million dollars.  Let’s do some quick math.  How much is that $50,000 equivalent in your world.

The average net worth in the US is $77,300.  Let’s raise that to $100,000 to make the numbers easy.  Your $100,000 is compared to Drake’s $25,000,000.  That means 1 dollar to you is equal to $250 dollars to Mr. Drake.  So him spending $50,000 is like you spending $200.

Now ask yourself would you go to the strip club and drop $200?  Maybe you have.  I haven’t and never will, but $200 suddenly doesn’t seem that bad.  It’s a hard concept for the working man to grasp because we quickly switch our minds to the job we hate, the rent that has to be paid, or the starving man that you just gave a $1.00 to.   We do that because we are not idiots and understand the value and power of money, something that Drake has long forgotten.  It’s not $200 it’s $50,000 and that money could help a lot of people do good things.

In his mind, he is doing good things, he just a lot of young ladies go to college.  Right Drizzy?
