But at the same time that’s all a lot of money to me.

The lifestyle you can live on $3mm in Utah is not much different than the life

Well then I hope we pay him $3M and give him some increased program control.

WP17

He will get paid - program control is best left to others IMO

Jersey hunter

12/7/21 12:08am

Right…But they made him use Ty Detmer as OC.

Honor Code

12/7/21 8:19am

They will pay him more than that

JOPE

They will but maybe not next year - certainly by 2023

The bulk of his salary does not come from the athletic budget

Coaches circle can’t make up that difference - it will come from increase in AD

What if I told you the coaches circle will have what it needs?

I hope you’re right

The generational wealth that you can obtain by making $8M/yr is notably different than what you can do with $3M.

12/7/21 12:23am

Generational wealth is not necessarily a good thing.

ManicBlue

12/7/21 12:24am

How much do you love your employer? If you could take the exact same job, perhaps with even fewer sticking points, and

99.9% of people don't make the kind of money Kalani makes. Also, there are some

ManicBlue

12/7/21 12:54am

I think your 99.9% number is high for people in Kalani’s income range.

Depends if my employer likely was going to fire me in 2-3 years vs 10-20 years

I pray every day to be burdened with generational wealth

RenoCoug

Lay that generational wealth on me. I'll let you know when I can't take anymore

Mountain Rat

Yeah, let's stay poor so we don't spoil the kids...

reddead

12/7/21 2:33am

Poor? We're talking millions. Please keep up.

Division Bell

12/7/21 4:46am

Well in that case, aren't the kids already spoiled?

reddead

12/7/21 11:52am

um ... not the point really

ManicBlue

Exactly. Large inheritances frequently tear families apart.

BYU002

12/7/21 9:47am

Agreed. This "friends and family" treatment should cut both ways

For all those interested in having generational wealth, if you sign up for my

Good thing that the millions Kalani is making at present aren't all that much...

The lifestyle you can have ANYWHERE is very different making the $3m-8m jump

reddead

12/7/21 2:46am

Why would you ever want your kids to not work? Making enough that your kids thin

cougsareforreal

12/7/21 5:18am

Exactly

RUNBYU1

12/7/21 9:45am

Fine. Then spend it on yourself or give it away. Regardless, $8m is a lot better

reddead

12/7/21 11:49am

Better helicopters and boats.

sah22

12/7/21 6:56am

You sold me on being able to lease a private jet, not have my kids work,

I agree. Also factor in the likely duration of those years even if the first

Think of all that extra tithing he could give to the church. A great service.

When you make that kind of money it isn't about how

Mario Christobal was only getting 4.6 million and he won back to back

Right. They are all 1%ers. Going from $125k to $300k is far more impactful on

Two things the scriptures don't encourage seeking: Fame, Extraordinary Wealth.

HenderCoug

12/7/21 10:03am

Nope. A $40 Mil contract at Oregon is generational money.

jimmything

12/7/21 11:45am

It is but it won't impact lifestyle enormously, which was the point. For example

Forzaitalia

12/7/21 11:57am

Yes. And if that doesn't move the needle, how about a private jet or a yacht?

reddead

12/7/21 12:12pm

You can always spend more. I know plenty of people with 2 or 3 homes who make
