    The difference in pay is easier to understand if we keep the time increments the same:

    Dude: $16/hr

    Bezos: $9,000,000/hr

    Bezos makes 562,500 times as much.

    Edit: added a missing zero

      I agree with your point, but I’m struggling with your numbers… Is it $9,000.00/hr or $900,000/HR?

      Editting myself to add: either is a horrific amount for one man to earn
