In 10th grade, Justin Verlander didn't have 50 cents for a chocolate milk.  So he made an arrangement with his friend, Daniel Hicks, that if Hicks gave him 50 cents, Verlander would give him .1 percent of his signing bonus.  Verlander was drafted by the [Detroit] Tigers out of Old Dominion [University], got a $3 million signing bonus and Hicks picked up $3,000 for the glass of chocolate milk.

1% of 3 million is 30,000

He was robbed; he needs to ask for the 27,000 that is owed to him
