Matt Lauer out at TODAY, Latest Sex Scandal.

[SF1900]

He made a $1,000,000 a month clear, would have had the balance of his contract paid out. He has a net worth of (approx) $60 million + payout. What the fuck does he care.

Of course he cares.

A huge part of Lauer's social identity was being a known public figure. He has built his life around being on television. And, he has lost his reputation.

No amount of money will replace that important part of his social identity. He will feel that loss.

[Desolate]

Exactly.

Social status is as important as money to these people.

But since 99% of liberals are scum, I'm sure he will still be invited to all the X-Mas parties, New Years Eve parties, summer Hamptons parties, etc.

These types tend not to judge since they know that they are just as bad.

Imagine if Getbig had a Christmas party! One of us should spearhead this endeavor! We can rent a large ballroom and all getbiggers could attend!

"Keep bending over like that it's a nice view"

Was that wrong??

Not even Lake Wobegon is safe -

What?! 

Probably just a bit of heavy breathing.

Good point, but money makes it a fuck of a lot easier.

Oh, of course. Supposedly his networth is 60 million. However, I wouldn't be surprised if it was more. Conceivably, he could sit home for the rest of his life and be totally fine (if he saved and invested). He never has to worry about money. Unfortunately, no amount of money will bring back his now tarnished reputation or legacy. That, in and of itself, will "destroy" him, at least emotionally.
