I'm not sure if anyone has ever truly asked this question, or tried to figure it out before...but what should the guy in the bright red suit, that delivers toys to all boys and girls all over the word in one night, while dealing with 9 reindeer...and elves, by Christmas Eve the Elves must be ready for a vacation and more than their share of cranky! So what did this survey say Santa Claus should earn a year???

A new survey on the website Insure.com asked readers how much money should Santa Claus earn for all the work he does?  Based on close to 900 responses, Americans think the guy in the red suit should make just under $140,000 a year.  The survey asked people to add up the value of all the work he does, including factory foreman, toy designer and engineer, pilot and animal keeper.
