I know Kai was being fucked by Oscar...as in half of his prize money went to Oscar and that's why he left him. How much would Phil pay for ramrod? He's not paying what the scrubs are paying, that's for sure.
Well Kai is dumb and also Oscar use to stay with him for weeks on end.
Honestly Phil does not pay him anything at all. Nothing zip zero Nada and I know this to be true too

... Rimrod 's pay is that he can say and take credit for Mr. Olympia and that will bring him every pro at his door step, not to mention the amount of publicity rim gets by attaching his name to Phil, which is worth tens of thousands of dollars. What pro does not want Hany's after they hear he dialed in Phil, everyone and at 5-10 grand a pop, hany is making six figure plus income on the pros alone.
