Note that the only source listed is bls, and I am pretty sure they don't track concert tickets 🤔.

lol yes exactly. Kind of hilarious and stupid that they reference BLS as a source, which I’m assuming they meant for the minimum wage figure to calculate the hours, but they also don’t show what that minimum wage figure is on the infographic….

Just a really poorly crafted piece of rage bait designed to do exactly what it’s doing here - piss people off so they share it.

If it's any consolation I am still annoyed that you had to pay $100/ticket.

Yeah I can’t think of a single artist off the top of my head that I would personally pay that much to see, but it made my girlfriend happy and that’s worth $100 to me any day

Prime MJ mightve been worth the $100 in hindsight, that dude was built different

100$ still feels like a discount when you think of how much of a show he used to put on. I would have loved to see him live in his prime.

Look for a novel, 'The Crook Manifesto' by Colin Whitehead.

A retired Harlem fence has to reach out to his old running buddies to get tickets to a Jackson 5 concert for his daughter. Hijinx ensue...
