We shall see.

I don't think it's fair to compare my situation to HAM's...He has earned generational wealth which completely changes the decision making process.
Speaking for myself, should I have his net worth, I'd rather have more championships than money. So, I'd be happy to take a pay cut to benefit the team and get a better car. I also don't think the net result will be a pay cut. Remember it's less guaranteed money but
MORE incentive payout.
I'm not trying to discredit HAM. Just the opposite, he is no where near washed up & can afford to bet on himself. In addition, the "Tom Brady" model which I suggested should provide incentive and motivation.
So would I take a flat out pay cut?
No
Would I take a pay cut
with performance cash incentives to enhance additional championship hopes?
YES
In the end I don't think he will make less money. He could possibly make more via a different method.
It's still just a rumor also.
