Oprah Winfrey sure can eat a ton more Big Macs than I can View Comments

Burger and Fries by Fooishbar at FlickrWhile looking for a good way to depress myself and my coworkers I came across Salary.com’s Salary Timer.  You put in your annual salary and it breaks it down to an hourly rate and then it starts counting up a real time salary.  So, if you want to see how much of the company’s money gets used up while you try to decide where to go to lunch, you can just start the timer and you’ll know!  You’ll notice down at the bottom you can pick a celebrity to compare yourself against.  Make sure to check out the “burg-o-meter” to be truly dumbstruck.  It’s hard to imagine earning 6 figures an hour so you can use the burg-o-meter to get a real time comparison in Big Macs or SUVs instead of dollars.  I did a quick calculation and it looks like it assumes a 40 hour work week, which I’m sure is not even close the amount that a star like Oprah has to put in in a week.
