That's my point! You said "If you think about it, 8x$8.5M is only $2M less than 7x$10M over the term and after taxes are considered he actually comes out ahead." I.e. 8x8.5=68 is only 2 less than 7x10=70

In reality, the comparison is 8.x8.5=68 vs. 7x10=70 + 1xY

I'd be willing to bet that Y is still several million dollars, so over the 8 year term this contract will see him making significantly more than $2M less
