Not sure if you have been tuning into the Howard Stern broadcasts since he got taken off Clear Channel, but he has been venting frustration over the fact that he can't do the show that he wants to do without being bleeped off the air. In any case, I'm sure that the money was of interest to him, but from his point of view, he's also taking a huge leap of faith in his listeners that they will all follow him to Sirius Satellite Radio and actually pay his salary too... From my point of view, if you look at people who have made enough money that they can retire very comfortably, as I believe Howard Stern has, you will notice that their ambitions in life is no longer about making millions and millions of dollars... On the radio show this morning, Howard was mentioning about how he had an epiphany at 5 years old where he just wanted to do radio, and when he was first starting out, he was dreaming of getting paid $250/week to do what he loves... I'm sure there's a degree of BS to this, but I also believe that he really does enjoy what he does, and now that he has proven to the world that he's the King of All Media, it's no longer about proving himself and making the money to show for it, as it is for him to just do what he likes. I really wasn't a big fan of his show until the controversy started with Clear Channel and started listening to him to understand more about the crazy people out there that just want to bring him down, yet ignore all other people doing the same thing as him or worse... Anyway... just my 2 cents...
