What is 'Duration'. Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of the price -- the value of principal -- of a fixed-income investment to a change in interest rates. Duration is expressed as a number of years. Bond prices are said to have an inverse relationship with interest rates.
Now, an attractions employee of Walt Disney World who has put in, for sake of argument, 40 years with the company (yes, they exist, I have met many) after this contract will make $14.07 an hour (with additional $.50 per hour wage increases per year over the next three years).
Disney does not do large raises, only about 15 cents a year. It's a good part time job for sure because of the pay, but when you are still making the same thing at year three it doesn't exactly motivate you to work harder.
