I’m sure you know this but it’s not mentioned…this is salary and in know way reflects what they make….tally up stock options and perks and we might get a better idea.
Impressive list. And all the other perks would explain why Steve Jobs only makes $1 a year, right? It would be something to see all the assets these people have. Would probably blow some peoples minds to see that much prosperity.
