Do super bowl cheerleaders not get paid?
They get a pittance. I had forgotten that they get $100-150 per game.

No hourly, no salary. They are literal gig workers, most of whom make $22,000-$25,000 per year. The ones at The Superbowl, aka the absolute top tier cheerleaders, might make a whole $70,000 a year. They may as well not be getting paid for how little they make compared to everyone else in the industry.
It's less than the players and coches for sure, but even the best janitor in the world doesn't get paid 70k. It's not a bad income...
Added emphasis. They aren't guaranteed to make that much, and the places that they have to live to be able to make that much, a janitor better be making more than 70k. That isn't a liveable wage on the west coast, which is where you have to be to make that much.
I have no idea where you live but I am guessing you have a decent income. It is coming off a bit “how much could one banana cost”.
Janitors in Los Angeles apparently make around $50,000. Minimum wage is of course quite a bit less than that. I am sure there are a lot of people on “the west coast” that would like to make a “living wage”.

I live in San Diego. I do make a lot, but with rents the way they are around here, not to mention gas prices, I've no idea how anyone is doing anything but barely surviving on 50k a year out here.
I know people don't get paid that much, but I don't know how they do it, and I refuse to pay employees that poorly.
They aren't single income homes.
Fair enough
