Alright, let’s talk about this Bob Marlin fella and how much money he’s got. Folks are always curious about these things, you know, how much dough someone’s got stashed away. It ain’t polite to ask directly, but I reckon we can poke around a bit on the internet.
Now, I ain’t no fancy accountant or nothin’, but I can read well enough. I hear tell that Bob Marlin, or maybe it was another Marlin, had a pile of money when he passed on. Something like eleven and a half million dollars, they say. Eleven million! That’s more money than I’ve seen in my whole life, I tell ya.
- But that was a long time ago, see?
- Money ain’t worth what it used to be.
- They say if you account for all that inflation stuff, it’d be more like thirty-two million today.
Thirty-two million! Imagine that! You could buy a whole heap of land with that kind of money. Probably enough to feed the whole town for a year, maybe more. And they say his songs still bring in the cash, even now. Fourteen million dollars this year alone! That’s just crazy money.
Now, I ain’t sure if this Bob Marlin is the same as that Sterling Marlin fella they talk about. Sounds like they got the same last name, but maybe they ain’t related. This Sterling fella, they say he’s got around forty million dollars. Forty million! Where do these folks get all this money? I reckon he musta been a smart businessman or somethin’. Maybe he played baseball or sold cars, I don’t know.
They say some fellas earn their money from salaries, you know, like working a regular job. Like that Bob Costas fella on TV. He’s got about fifty million, they say. Fifty million just for talkin’ on the TV! And that Deng fella, he made a hundred million just from playin’ ball. Can you believe it? A hundred million dollars! I reckon I could live real comfortable on that kind of money. Maybe buy a new tractor and a bigger chicken coop.
But what does it all mean, this “net worth” they keep talkin’ about? Well, near as I can figure, it’s how much all your stuff is worth. Your house, your land, your money in the bank, all of it. And they say you ain’t really wealthy unless you got two and a half million dollars. Two and a half million! That’s still a lot of money in my book.
It makes you wonder, don’t it? How much money is enough? I reckon it depends on who you ask. Some folks are happy with a little, some folks always want more. But one thing’s for sure, money ain’t everything. It can’t buy you happiness, that’s for sure. But it can buy you a good tractor, and that’s somethin’, ain’t it?
So, this Bob Marlin fella, whether it’s the singer or the race car driver or whoever, he’s got a good chunk of change, that’s for sure. And good for him, I say. He probably worked hard for it, or maybe he was just lucky. Either way, it ain’t none of my business how much money he’s got. But it’s still kinda fun to think about, ain’t it? All that money… makes your head spin.
Anyways, I gotta get back to work. The chickens need feedin’ and the garden needs waterin’. Money ain’t gonna grow on trees, that’s for sure.
