Technically, a full time job in the US is equal to 8-hour-a-day or 40 hours a week of work. Multiply that with 52 weeks a year = 2080 hours a year.
If you go over 40 hours a week, it is considered overtime and you are entitled to have time and a half pay (or times 1.5 of your base hour pay).
So lets assume that Gates doesn't get overtime.
$7.8 billion for a year (2080 hours)
is equal to:
$30 million a day (8 hours a day)
$3.75 million per hour
$62,500 per minute
$1,041.67 per second.
versus putting a celfone right next to your brain everytime you make a call?
