That actually seems quite high.

All of the contracts I have seen in the 80s and 90s were well under 100 per year and not even real money. They sent the players a catalog with things such as televisions and toasters and they could use the "money" to order from it. So essentially they were paid in green stamps during the absolute peak card boom.

Here is a scan of John Cangelosi's extension showing the catalog language from eBay.
