How Do I Make More Money Than Caitlin Clark

By now, I really should know better. Any time salaries or unfair wages come up around Dave, I should fully expect a ricochet shot coming my way. And sure enough, here we are. 

Look, Caitlin Clark obviously brings in way more money than I do. That’s not even up for debate. It would be a disgrace to the entire nation if she didn’t. But somehow, some way, my base salary is still technically higher than hers. And honestly that’s objectively hilarious. Like, borderline criminal. It also proves something people have been saying for weeks now, WNBA players absolutely deserve to make more money. Not someday, soon.

But here’s the kicker, it’s not just my dumbass making more than Caitlin Clark. Mintzy’s pulling in more. A ton of others are too. If you think my contract is crazy… LOL. You should see some of the numbers floating around in this world. 

All jokes aside, Caitlin Clark is the face of an entire league. She’s sold out arenas. She’s boosted viewership. She’s moved merch. She’s put the WNBA on the front page more times in the last six months than probably anyone has in the last six years. And the fact that she’s still earning less than a bunch of clowns like me and my coworkers? That’s insane.

The best player in the WNBA shouldn’t just be making more than me, she should be clearing my salary by hundreds of thousands of dollars, no questions asked. There’s no spin zone here. No “but what about…” She’s a superstar, a generational talent, and she’s doing more for her league than most of us could dream of doing for ours.

That being said… get your money up, Caitlin.
