Not in the real world, sorry. Maybe for a pro-gamer.

The real world doesn't mean executive business people and whatever else. The average person makes half that.


And also keep in mind he's like 20... the average person who's making half that is also twice his age.

As every progamer has said, they're living a dream, and they're incredibly thankful for such an opportunity.

take 8k dollar a month guaranteed salary and take how much he wins prize money every year and he earns a ton of money so why are so many talking like they all make more then stephano? When there are only a small percentage doing that.

rofl, you're wrong, sorry. The average American earns like 60k a year, so 100k plus prize money etc is a big deal for a 20 year old.

stephano signs, so he no longer have to practise so hard to win tourneys for money
EG slump inc, but atleast he will get better at benchpressing i guess.


InControl will see to that ! ^^
Perhaps he will get up to Idra's level (benchpressing wise).

So, now EG must deliever...put Stephano in the GSL and let him rock it!

Depends on what field you choose once you're out of med school.


In Denmark 8k a month is average for a full-time job, higher than the minimum, but I think it's even below average

ROFL. you must be kidding...

Average gross salary 4,047 € / 5,464 $, monthly (2006)[5]
Average net salary 2,390 € / 3,226 $, monthly (2006)[5]

Source wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Denmark


in 2006, looks at charts everywhere, salaries has been rising immensly since then, 5,4 to 8k should be no problem really. Find some updated information before you link it, rather than something 6 years old....

Are you serious ?lol. I'm pretty sure you're mistaken, I highly doubt the average salary in Danemark is 8k/month when a couple of years ago the biggest monthly salary in Europe was like 5k...($)
Why don't YOU give us some source ?

Unfortunately it appears that there should be an extra zero there.... 960 000 a year, according to incontrol at least:

I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

960 billion is average pay in Sweden, but we pay about 99.9999% in taxes

My sources were talking about a "7-figures" salary for most of EG crew, and 8 figures for Incontrol as team's captain.

960 billion might be a troll. According to world's GDP projections, that would mean Stephano would drain the next 10 years of growth just on salary alone (and probably another 10 years on prizes).

960 million seems more like it.

Anyway. Still lacks a confirmation of some kind, but pre-congratulations to both.
