Master Chief's bank of choice

by Dustin Burg { Sep 8th 2007 at 10:30AM }

The Halo 3 marketing machine is now in full swing with advertisements and promotions popping up everywhere. But this marketing machine isn't just good for selling Halo 3, oh no, it helps sell other products ... maybe something like a bank? The picture above is a prime example of a First Mutual Bank using Halo 3 and good old Master Chief to bring in the "younger crowd" to open savings accounts or take out a beefy loan. Speaking of which, we always wondered how much Master Chief pulls in a given year and whether or not a Warthog would fit through the bank's drive up window ... meh, go Earth!

"Speaking of which, we always wondered how much Master Chief pulls in a given year"

Well, lets see. He is a Master Chief so thats an E-9 and he has been in the military since he was six so that puts over the 20 year mark. So I would guess that he makes around $75000 a year, not includeing hostile fire pay and various allowences of course.

Yes, I know im a nerd. :( lol.
