<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>If you are lucky, you have an employer who offers some percentage of matching contribution for your individual retirement account. If you are really lucky, you have a guaranteed pension plan. </p>

If you are Tiger Woods, or any PGA Tour pro, you redefine what others consider lucky. </p>

Woods, the world's greatest golfer has the world's greatest employer funded retirement package. How great? </p><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" width="350" align="right"><tbody><tr><td width="300" align="center"><div align="left"><strong class="yspleadhdln">Path to a billion [/b]
How Woods' retirement plan could possibly reach $1 billion, even if his production falls off, and he doesn't make the top 70 in some years. </div>

If Woods keeps winning at his current rate, enjoys a nine percent annual return and captures just seven FedEx Cups in his career, he could reach $1 billion in retirement payouts courtesy of the PGA Tour Inc. </p>

Yes, a billion. As in a thousand million. As in $1,000,000,000</p>http://sports.yahoo.com/golf/pga/news?slug...o&type=lgns
 
Ok I butchered the post, but you get the point. And that's craaazy.
 
Show this to Ditka and watch his head explode....
 
That could likely be Tiger's second billion. He might just reach a billion dollars in personal assets before this take affect.
 
Would the PGA actually give it to him, and would he ask/make a big deal of receiving it?
