What's Steve's job suppose to be? A bank executive? :)
He has a nice house with a lawn, a car (or two), bunch of kids and a homemaker wife and he supports all these people and has all those things with his one paycheck? Wow...
Steve Martin just said , " I'm attempting to dazzle Dave. I'm trying to put together a major income property thing for one of our larger clients" ...so....not advertising I guess, after all.

My boss at my old not so big company supported a wife and 6 kids on one paycheck in the Washington DC which is one of the most expensive areas in the country so yeah I'd think one guy with a big exec job in the midwest could support a wife and lots of kids in 1989. He even took them all to Alaska 2 years ago, on a Caribbean cruise last Christmas, and to Florida for a week in Disney last month and I'm pretty sure they have a decent house in the VA suburbs. Nice man too like Gil.
shareThey don't say what kind of job he does. I guess he works for some firm that tries to get clients in so they can do business with them. He has been there 8 years (the backbone of the operation) but he isn't on top as partner. Still, he makes enough so he can support three kids (he doesn't get the fourth one until the end when he got promoted).
shareLarry: Oh, come on, if I called you up to tell you, "Hey Dad, I'm the new assistant sub-vice president of pencil sharpening at some crappy little company," you're telling me you'd think that was great? I am better than that!I am not Gil!
I just assumed that's what Gil does for a living...
Ha, ha, nice catch! :)

Do you think you could have that type of lifestyle (in the suburbs) for $124,000 per year?
shareHis house was really big, and not a cookie-cutter suburb house either. I mean, it was gorgeous and he had waterfront property. he must have been balling, even while referring to it as a "crappy" job. I mean, cowboy dan probably doesn't come cheap either as he was coveted by nearly every 9 year old in the state. Dazzled or not, Dave was paying Gil very fairly with that estate on the lake.

In the 1980s, you very often could. Money went farther, was worth more.
I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus.
Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.
