@@petiewheat82 never seen much of ole Norms stuff huh? Read his books and watch his stuff and let me know if you see a free man or not. Norm was the king of idgaf.

I wonder if that bastard Gregory Illinivich was Norm's boss; if so, that would explain why Norm got ripped off. Norm should've been a podiatrist for the summer instead.
Ilinovich was his worst boss he could openly talk about. Far worse, was the summer working the rails with Kitchener Leslie, which comes in second only to his internship under the queensboro bridge with, you guessed it...

This is high up in the category of "impossible to retell" Norm MacDonald jokes. ". . . Lipscomb, MacDonald, and. . uh. . . . . . . Levine." I almost miss that line every time, I'm still laughing!!
The MacDonald trolling will go so far over people's heads it's ridiculous. Haha. I'm glad Fallon had the balls to put this on here despite the audience possibly not getting it.
Why wouldnt fallon put on norms tragic story of when he was a successful hedge fund manager making 280 grand for this firm, but seeing his bosses stealing a good percentage of his money? It is a good lesson to be an entrepreneur instead of working for the man
Also how does no one understand the humor in describing a lucrative summer job as opposed to the overdone "I wasn't always the big shot you see now" type story. Always subversive, norm
He often says that he grew up on a farm and that they were very poor. Though he could be lying, you never know with Norm. Though it makes me sad that you think that someone needs to be at least middle class in order to be smart. Intelligence has nothing to do with how much money you have, at least if you live in a first world country.
I knew something amazing was coming when he smirked at 0:20. And I was right. I feel sorry if Norm is way over your head, Norm might be the funniest guy in the world. Easily one of them in the least. His worst summer job was him making 190k when he was 14? If you don't get that he's joking, watch Jeff Dunham instead.
the joke is simple: he is assuming the persona of a wall street fat-cat that made a large amount of money and is complaining about not making all of the money available its not funny because its a joke, its funny because there are actually real people who talk just like this
I just got off work so I’ll get it done soon lol I have a lot to go with you lol lol I’m going in a few more minutes and then we will go back in there a few times to see what you want me and I will be doing lol
Wait, only 190k? What is that in today's money - something like a little over half a million US? You can make that in RUclips in week or so without having to go trough the trouble of getting to the office.
Twiggy Twigg You really do seem like a dumbdumb with your gasmask there, and your snide comment about a very decent president. Yes, Norm's joke was funny, no, you aren't funny as a result of liking it.
Anybody who imagines there's a correlation between misunderstanding Norm's humor and satisfaction with President Obama likely has to sleep sitting up or he'll choke on his own vomit.
Jake Rusco If his father was a millionaire then yeah, I believe he did. Otherwise what's the point of telling this lame unfunny story if it's not even true?
Norm lies anytime he is asked about his life lol
Menace Man thank God for the Tifa x cloud
😂😂. I was about to type the same thing
Ur an idiot
I've noticed he always lies about his age. Up or down.
It's not a lie, it's genius
With that kind of smarts 15 year old Norm could have been the Chairman of the Bored.
Box office poison
you got the spelling right.
Supermarket flyer smarts..
There's got to be some sort of Norm fan club right? I'm obviously not the only one that compulsively watches all of his videos and gets excited when there's something new.
That's basically what the I'm Not Norm channel is. I'm sure you found it long ago but if not happy viewing
I used to get excited when new Norm content would come out. Now, I would get really excited.
It's called a cult following
@@abrahamlincoln5185 I never knew he was sick
Now more than ever, hon
This is about as true as his friend Jaques with a youthful porpoise.
Do you mean Jaques DeGautier or Jaques De Gateneau!
All with a straight face lmao
Could of worked at the hatchery instead
Menace Man thank God for the hatchery
Chris Kouyoumjan My Uncle Terry didn’t work at the hatchery...
@@derrikferguson3219 ...and we learned not to mess with Uncle Terry when he was drinkin'...and there was pride where shame once was.
I just laughed so hard I almost spit out my food
Or been in Vietnam
People that think this is a true story don't understand Norm's comedy. Hilarious!
djcprod Correction: People that think this is a true story are borderline retarded.
You have to understand how to laugh? Not funny next
Exactly
+Brother Obi it's an intellectual thing. You wouldn't understand.
Brother Obi "You have to understand how to laugh".
"understand"......"how to laugh"....
I don't understand.
Norm decided that if nobody was going to stop him, he'd just keep going.
Norm was the GOAT. Funniest dude to ever live. Loosing him was a national tragedy.
Or so the Germans would have us believe
a canadian tragedy
Keeping him caged would have been a greater tragedy. He is a man, after all, not some animal at the zoo for us to point and laugh at.

@@MrVein1983 My comment was based on your choice to misspell words.
if you ask norm about a story from his life and you expect norm to do that then you got another thing coming
The Tonight Show posts this kind of video every couple days and Norm has the most unique approach of any of these videos ever. That is why Norm is the man.
Those 70's Hedge Funds really helped put the Canadian stock exchange on the map.
I have come to love and respect his humour such that I suspect he is the greatest currently living comedian.
And I don't even know why.
He is a genius with the sharpest mind and the biggest heart.
No need to suspect anymore. May he rest in peace.
Now he's the greatest comedian, period.
This guy made that much and didnt give anything to the church?! This guy... i mean, this guy is a real jerk!

I almost miss that line every time, I'm still laughing!!
I could see the anit-semitism in that remark. Maybe think of Lovitz
Norm McDonald: exposing the gullible since 1987.
So many comments of people getting mad at everyone who didn't get the joke, but no comments by anyone who didn't get the joke.
sevlevboss meta
Well......I think the appropriate expression here is ...*_that goes without saying_* ...??
There's a joke in there?
the whole this is, right there is a punchline for ya, @1:27 . Its all just a big lie/joke, Norm was raised dirt poor as a farmer.
60%. What a ripoff.
Oh, this is Jimmy Fallon's channel. I didn't realize this at first. The comments make sense now.
lol, Norm is like the joker, every time with a new origin story.. this one is hilarious doe
Brilliant. He's still got it.
Those margins are horrendous! I'd be pissed too!
I am really enjoying the posts so far. You can tell those who aren't familiar with Norm Macdonald's style of humor lol.
Because everyone on the internet lives in England...
What does England have to do with Norm Macdonald? He's from Canada and has worked pretty much exclusively in the US.
John Smith every comment that has reference to a Norm joke is great!!! Funny stuff
lol, 190k in 3 months as a hedge fund manager at 14, who wouldn't go into the instant cash rolling profession of comedy after that.
I love norm.
Norm- you have a lot of well wishers here in the comment section- and a lot of them would like to throw you down one.... a well.
they want to murder him..in a well.
seems a bit harsh.
it says here in this youtube comment they want to murder you in a well...
I don't even know why when he said "Levine" it made me guffaw. Norm's comedy is magical.
He did all the work... he really should've gotten at least 80% of the profits!
comments are funny as hell. this is Norm, people. Always a jokster, and the funniest guy around. He would love that some rubes believe his story.
The MacDonald trolling will go so far over people's heads it's ridiculous. Haha. I'm glad Fallon had the balls to put this on here despite the audience possibly not getting it.

Norm is the greatest troll ever.
Is every video of norm not epic? Aww hahaha norm is a genius
Norm could make a fortune as an ASMR artist. His voice in sleepy mode gives major tingles to those of us with ASMR.
The Wizard of Comedy.
Dear god guys, the joke is that he's complaining about only making 180k as a teenager.
Norm trolls everyone again.
We love you, Norm.
Hahaha Norm you old chunk of coal! Funniest guy alive!
Those that run Lipscum, Macdonald & Levine sound like they're some real jerks!
Also how does no one understand the humor in describing a lucrative summer job as opposed to the overdone "I wasn't always the big shot you see now" type story. Always subversive, norm
lucrative af...then says it's the people who control the money that make it not him
That’s literally the joke
Norm just has to breathe and it's adorable
RIP Normy 🙏♥️
I have been LOOKING for this
Norm grew up very poor, he's just kidding.
He often says that he grew up on a farm and that they were very poor. Though he could be lying, you never know with Norm. Though it makes me sad that you think that someone needs to be at least middle class in order to be smart. Intelligence has nothing to do with how much money you have, at least if you live in a first world country.
Yes, in fact Norm was born in a small log cabin in Northern Ontario that he built with his own two hands.
He was born in Quebec and his parents were teachers. Don't know if they also had a farm ;)
He's also *_not Jewish_*.
Is your comment a joke? He is telling a story about a FOURTEEN YEAR OLD hedge-fund manager.
Can't help but laugh at all the commentators that don't get Norm's sense of humor. IT'S A JOKE!
Surreal
Troll level: 100
LMAO he was such a troll. RIP Norm
"Nascent"... nice!
I believe you Norm!
That reminds me of a job I had under the Queensborough Bridge. I made $15 per customer....and I got to keep all $15.
im really surprised he didnt say something like bull semen bucket holder. i guess he went high brow
That story was uhh, what some might call a, you know, a slow burn.
So many people missing the joke
fill me in
freshprinceofbellaire because the light was on
It served a youthful porpoise.
I knew something amazing was coming when he smirked at 0:20. And I was right. I feel sorry if Norm is way over your head, Norm might be the funniest guy in the world. Easily one of them in the least.
His worst summer job was him making 190k when he was 14? If you don't get that he's joking, watch Jeff Dunham instead.
Lol, exactly
You should be ashamed of yourself, Fallon
His second worst job?
Assistant Hedge Fund Manager.
the joke is simple: he is assuming the persona of a wall street fat-cat that made a large amount of money and is complaining about not making all of the money available
its not funny because its a joke, its funny because there are actually real people who talk just like this
Johnny Cage the joke is that this was meant to be his worst summer job.
So would you say that hedge fund management was 'Dirty Work'?
is this recorded with an iPhone 3 or smth..
Tssssss fawk yeah
At least he learned the value of a dollar.
Norm did not lose his battle, it was a draw!
If this wasn't on Jimmy Fallon, Norm would've been honest and said "working with that fucker Adam Eget"
FunOfTheChase *Adam Egret
pausing for a long time before remembering his name :-)
I just got off work so I’ll get it done soon lol I have a lot to go with you lol lol I’m going in a few more minutes and then we will go back in there a few times to see what you want me and I will be doing lol
He sounds totally 647FD.
Id take 60% of that any day. I'd take 60% of that 60%
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORM!!!
Kid hedge fund manager...Wait what ????
I don't believe you Norm.
Norm screwed up the joke a bit since 190 out of 280 is almost 68% and not "barely made 60%" :)
meyman9 8% probably just about counts as barely for a joke about 14 year old hedge fund manager.
Math is easy..being a comic genius is hard.
I bet the math was done by a woman...just kidding...the hedge fund guys don't hire women!
LETS GET READY TO MUMBLE
It feels like all of the comments are about how all of the comments are stupid
What the hell. I've heard him say he was dirt poor. He must be pulling our leg
Pigeon you are drunk.

WTF?!
Hey Jimmy, aren't you the guy cancelled his appearance on your show over some bs? I'm disappointed to see Norman on your chanel
ok his humor but is he telling a real story wtf

Cant tell what he is saying
190k and youre complaining?
tran you He's joking. None of the story is true.

is he drunk?

Twiggy Twigg You really do seem like a dumbdumb with your gasmask there, and your snide comment about a very decent president. Yes, Norm's joke was funny, no, you aren't funny as a result of liking it.

great troll bait.
wait, wtf? a 15 year old kid mad 190k in one summer and says the job sucked? sign me up, i wont complain at all! i promise.

I know I wouldn't be complaining if I made $190K...
The worst part about it is the hypocrisy.
