Random News: Romney’s Money edition
Posted on Aug 22, 2007 under Random News |Bonds’ balls are going to auction: The home run balls number 755 and 756 are going to be auctioned with the latter expecting to fetch about a half a million dollars. The guy with 756, a 21 year old, said he’d like to keep it, but he’d be taxed just for holding it. What a great country we live in.
YouTube introducing overlay ads: You knew it was coming at some point, right? The ads won’t appear before the videos however; they’ll be semitransparent at the bottom of the clip. An interesting concept at least.
The richest Presidential candidate: Apparently Mitt Romney is loaded. His wealth is estimated at between $195 million and $387 million. Also interesting, he has pledged to waive the $400,000 presidential salary if elected as he did when he was the governor of Massachusetts. It won’t fix the national debt, but it’s a good showing.
