i have been yelled at by my friends multiple times for bringing up hannibal nbc in conversations at random times
I did some research that you might find interesting. I was very interested in how much Will and Hannibal earn per month.
After consulting a few sites I came to the conclusion that an FBI profiler earns ~6000-7000$/month. Will is also a teacher and it turns out that's better paid than being a profiler but I could only find salaries for special agents who are teachers so I would say that for Will is less than that, so maybe 6000-7000$/month from teaching. Since he is back on field he is probably doing his teacher job part time so it's even less, I would stick to a 4000$/month.
So I might be wrong but will could be earning more than 10.000$/month. No idea how taxes work in the US so feel free to correct me.
However when it comes to Hannibal...I see that a therapy session can range from 300 to 500$ in the field of psychiatry. Especially since he has his own office, I would say he charges 400$/session. When we get to see a page in his agenda, it's actually quite full and he works until very late so I would say 5 patients per day (with breaks and all).
So 5 x 400 = 2000$/day
5 x 2000= 10.000$/ week
10.000 x 4 = 40.000$/month
And you have to account for the fact that he is active in the field (publishes papers, assesses phd candidates) so it's safe to say Hannibal earns around 50.000$ per month....which is....insane but not surprising.
Of course all the calculations are speculative but I think I am mostly right.
Mr Gaiman what is your favorite ice cream flavor?
I think the ritual of stabbing Julius Caesar on the Ides of March is an important Tumblr tradition that needs to be maintained for coming generations.
it's a beautiful day at the roman senate and you are a horrible goose
🍓 my biggest dream is being called a girls girl
it’s a beautiful sunny day and I’m at the ballpark with by bat. ‘it’s not that I didn’t enjoy the barbie movie as a casual watch, but something about the monologue dances along the same wavelength as the mcu girl power scene and taylor swift. that corporate feminist twang’ I say as I take my first swing
Ok so my kid had an ear infection, right? As kids often do.
The doctor scraped out a bit of earwax to have a better look inside.
I was sent a bill for $200 PER EAR for this 5 second procedure which I did not give permission for them to do.
That was key- they did not ASK me if they could do this "procedure". And, as I OWN a medical practice (it's me. The medical practice is me, sitting in my house on video calls) I knew to call them when this bill came in to be like "You did not obtain informed consent for this procedure, and it was not en emergency procedure. You had full ability to gain my consent and didn't. I'm not paying."
And the massive hospital who owned the bill said "yuh-huh you do have to pay."
And I said "I own a practice. I know these laws. I do not owe you money for this."
And they conducted an "internal review" and SURPRISE! Decided I totally owed them money and they had never done anything wrong ever.
And so I called my state's Attorney General office, and explained the situation because, as I mentioned, I know the law. The AG got in touch within a couple days to say they were taking the case and would send the massive hospital conglomerate a knock it off, guys letter.
Lo and Behold, today I have a letter where said hospital graciously has agreed to forfeit the payment.
"How not to get screwed over by companies" should be part of civics class.
Know your rights and know who to call when they're infringed on. This whole process cost me $0 and honestly less effort than I would have expected.
May this knowledge find its way to someone else who can use it.
