Yeah, it's good, but Rodgers is taking zero risk here. He's 37, probably a couple years from retirement, and worth many millions. Same with Kyrie Irving. Big sacrifice. It's like Our Lord's parable of the widow's mite. But at least it's getting some press.
It's a different story for those losing their jobs when they rely on each week's paycheck just to pay their bills.

If he doesn't try to "live large" and doesn't get too happy with himself, he could live a fine life by investing "many millions", and never have to work another day in his life. But very often it doesn't turn out that way. Multi-million-dollar lottery winners very often end up bankrupt in a few years.
I have a dream, if I ever won the lottery in a big way (i.e., hundreds of millions of dollars), of creating two high schools, "twin academies", one all-male, one all-female, top salaries for the teachers (who would teach in both schools), free tuition, free books, and possibly even free room and board, with a chapel and the Traditional Latin Mass offered daily, mandatory attendance.
