The Hollywood crowd uses more fuel in a single flight...

of a private jet than most families burn in their cars for an entire year. For example, the Gulfstream IV that's quite popular with the Hollywood set has a fuel capacity of over 4,400 gallons. They're hardly credible when it comes to the rest of us squandering resources.

That said, if I could legally earn that kind of money, I'd take it. Funny how much money we're willing to pay for entertainment (sports, movies, music, etc) compared to those whose jobs actually have meaning. Like you said, supply and demand rules. There are somewhere around 2 million teachers in America, so naturally none of them will ever earn the kind of money that a celebrity will pull in.
