but it sure is something.
Two people that wouldn't seem to have much in common are talk show host/comedian Conan O'Brien and NFL quarterback JaMarcus Russell. However, what they do have in common is their careers haven't gone in the directions they expected and they got paid millions of dollars as compensation. As bad as we can feel for their circumstances, one thing they won't have to worry about is having enough money. I guess when people have plenty of money, assuming millions upon millions of dollars is plenty of money, their priorities become such things as their legacies and reputations. Even so, it's difficult to feel that bad for them; whether Conan feels betrayed or not, he's signed up for a new show this fall and JaMarcus is only 24-years old and is blessed with rare athletic ability - and they both have a ton of money. For all the rest of us whose lives haven't gone as well as we would have hoped, wouldn't a fortune be a nice consolation prize?
