Mays Earning Pauper's Salary Compared To Ruth
NYU finance professor Dr Lawrence Ritter argues Willie Mays earns far less in purchasing power than Babe Ruth did in 1931. Using tax, inflation and price data, Ritter estimates Ruth’s 1931 take home $68,500 vs Mays $52,000, a gap that would require Mays to earn roughly $454,000 today for parity.
