Show me the Money

Would you believe,Nike is paying Tiger Woods ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS to endorse their products?Do you think they are getting their money's worth?
Just what does he do for that hefty paycheck?I've seen his commercials.He barely says a half dozen words.In some ads he says nothing.Basically,all he is doing is lending his face to the company for a contracted amount of time.
So,yes,he had better smile that way.That face belongs to Nike.

Hard job,but times are tough all over Tiger.

By the way,he endorse products for eleven other companies.The mind boggles.

  1. Britney Spears got an equally hefty some from Pepsi Cola for a spot. Kate Moss, Madonna, Stella McCartney cashed in on H&M (which is really BIG in Europe)

    I think Tiger Woods is a sure winner. His life is scandal-free. he is very successful in his chosen profession.
    Even if I think 100 million bucks is a tad too much I think they'll profit from Woods endorsing their products.

    Tiger is a real stand up guy,raised with great family values,someone you would want your kid to look up to,Tiger will be able to wear that smile for years to come.

  8. Thank you.I remember having seen it once or twice on TV. But I never payed close attention.
    Nowadays Coca-Cola and Pepsi have toned down their spots which agrees with me My daughter loves the "Coca-Cola" truck. I buy it anyway. I don't need a celeb to tell me what to take.

  13. A big part of the reason for the recession is that the money in your country and mine is concentrated among too few people.
