Question: Did anyone read "The Shining" book and know how much Jack was paid to watch the Overlook Hotel for the winter!?
You'd have to figure that would be worth $50,000 or so in today's dollars, no!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

King never said how much, just that in Jack's circumstances it was a job he couldn't pass up!. I would agree it had to be about $50k just for the winter season!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
