That could be something that ends with me still getting paid at market value while still allowing my friends to stay. In reality, you will see this from time-to-time in real life. Maybe you were promised a promotion and big raise, but it has to happen in the middle of the year in order to fit within budget constraints so other high performers can also get promoted and stay on. That's no big deal, everyone wins in the end.

A pay cut, though? No. It's a fun topic to talk about, though. Some people would be fine with taking less knowing that they are already making hundreds of millions. Some aren't. I can understand both, but I am in the latter category. 

I’m assuming you aren’t set for life after one year. Joe will be. Now I don’t begrudge a player making as much as they can, but there’s a point where you are going to make so much money no matter what, that other factors can come into consideration.
