We Just Report the News

As reported in yesterday's New York Post, reprinted HERE (without the necessity of registration):

"AMERICA'S first black female billionaire just got remarried. Sheila Johnson, the ex-wife of BET founder Robert Johnson, tied the knot with Judge William Newman at her Salamander Farm in Middleburg, Va., on Saturday. Newman met Johnson when he presided over her 2002 divorce case against Robert, her husband of 33 years. Newman's decision evenly split the $3 billion Johnson netted after Viacom bought BET."

[So let's see: 1/2 of 1/2 of $3 Billion = $750 million. Assume annual judicial salary = $150,000. Then, 5,000 years times $150,000 = $750,000,000.]

Priceless.
