Baseball, in my opinion, would be a lot better if you could just make the same salary as everybody else in the world, and you don't deal with any of the other stuff. But that's not how it is. The main thing is I want to pitch against the best players in the world, and you can't do that playing in a pickup baseball league in your town.

In my barrio, jobs work and money saves lives. When I have had the funds to place a gang member on a job site and pay his salary, I've seen him stop banging. When, on the rarest of occasions, an employer has offered a job to one of these youth, I've witnessed kids suddenly have a reason to get up in the morning.

I can't apply $3 billion in capital to the tech industry. It wouldn't work. But in infrastructure, education, I can make a real difference. I can change someone's life, for the better, permanently. If I can improve a kid's education, I can increase their salary later on and for decades.

Don't stay at the job for safe salary increases over time. That will never get you where you want - freedom from financial worry. Only free time, imagination, creativity, and an ability to disappear will help you deliver value that nobody ever delivered before in the history of mankind.

I just believe that the way that young people's minds develop is fascinating. If you are doing something for a grade or salary or a reward, it doesn't have as much meaning as creating something for yourself and your own life.

When an actor comes to me and wants to discuss his character, I say, 'It's in the script.' If he says, 'But what's my motivation?, ' I say, 'Your salary.

It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if we didn't have a salary cap.

Understand that 'salary' implies a set amount received regularly, usually monthly.

Regular Payment

Salaries are often discussed annually to compare jobs or negotiate pay.

Annual Calculations

Unlike wages, 'salary' isn't based on the exact number of hours worked.

Not Hourly Rate

Salary stays constant regardless of hours, emphasizing job stability.

Fixed Income

Remember, a salary covers a job's overall value, not just time spent working.

Beyond Hours

Higher job positions tend to have salaries rather than hourly wages.

Job Position

Salary in legal or job contracts is the amount before taxes or deductions.

Pre-deduction Amount

The salary in legal contexts is a guarantee in your employment contract.

Contract Basis

When job hunting or getting promoted, remember the salary is often negotiable.
