1. During his prime in the 1980’s Larry Bird was one of the world’s best basketball players, making in excess of $7million per year playing for the Boston Celtics. However, at one point during his basketball playing days the NBA players went on strike. While on strike Larry took a job as a garbage man where he made approximately $30,000 per year.
   1. Given that Larry’s next best job, after being a basketball player, only paid $30,000, why couldn’t the Boston Celtics have simply paid Larry a bit more than $30,000 (or perhaps even ONLY $1 million) to play for them, rather than $7million? That is, what is the mechanism that forces the Celtics to pay so much more than Larry would have willingly accepted to play the sport he loved?

2. Given that Larry is so rich, how much higher prices does Larry pay for gasoline, food, clothes, etc, than the rest of us merely middle class folks? Please explain briefly.
