But make no mistake, football is a business, and a big business worth billions of dollars at that. In fact, the past year has seen a significant increase in NFL valuation because of a 3.6% rise in league revenue in 2013. The average NFL team is currently worth $1.43 billion, 23% more than a year ago, the biggest year-over-year increase since 1999. For the eighth consecutive year the Dallas Cowboys are the NFL’s most valuable team....

That’s what makes their offseason moves so confusing. Despite ample cap space at the end of the regular season, the Spurs instead invested $120 million in two guys who are a combined 69 years old. In July, the Spurs signed Pau Gasol to a three-year, $48 million contract. Then earlier this week, they inked LaMarcus Aldridge to a three-year, $72 million deal. All that cap room no longer exists. The moves really don’t make a lot of sense for a team that won 61 games last year....

Brady fans might already know that the quarterback insisted on a 12th-floor luxury unit in the building thanks to its being his lucky number with the New England Patriots.

But, as a source explained to the Post, the two aren’t cutting ties from New York altogether, adding that the sale is all but complete save for a few final formalities in order to close: “They are in contract to sell and the deal is expected to close soon…Tom and Gisele still love New York but they are downsizing because they are spending so much time in Tampa....

Anthony Fok is the founder of JC Economics, and who opened up a one-man tutoring shop back in 2013. Since then, the number of students under his super-tutelage has grown from between three and four to as many as 300 students a year. Fok’s revenues have swelled in response, which explains how he’s able to pull in seven figures over the course of a year today. He could probably make even more, if he were willing to give special consideration to particularly desperate parents, like one who reportedly offered him $25,000 in cash to guarantee their child a spot on the JC Economics roll – an offer which he did not accept....

See also: Ashton Kutcher Salary After his termination Sheen launched his national “Violent Torpedo of Truth” tour but more importantly he also launched a very serious lawsuit against Warner Brothers. Why Warner Brothers and not CBS (the network that aired the show)? Technically Warner Brothers owns Two and a Half Men, CBS essentially just leases episodes for a very large fee. CBS then goes out and sells all the ads it wants around the show but in the end Warner Brothers pays the writers, actors, producers etc… It’s also Warner Brothers who makes a fortune when the show is sold into syndication....
