Big companies have been making even bigger headlines these days, and all the recent economic drama has encouraged greater scrutiny regarding how much the CEOs of these companies are taking home.
Six figures would be nice for most individuals, but these executives have been taking home as much as nine figures! Can you guess how much some CEOs have made including base salary, stock, and bonuses?

2In the paper this morning, I read about how in the 1970s, CEOs' pay was roughly 25 to 35x regular employees' salaries. Now the multiple is something like 225x. I'm sure it's hard work to run a company, but they have multiple assistants and lower ranking senior employees to do most of the grunt work, so what justifies getting paid that absurd multiple?
3The ones at the one that I work at are def getting 7 figs.
Its pretty crappy how they give them a fake low salary, and then give them six figure "bonuses"
Uh, yeah.
4So, why would they need a golden parachute?
5i think that it's INSANE to think about how much money these guys made and how much everyone else is losing as a result of decisions that they didn't push to make sooner. i think that it's really a testament to what upper level execs make in the world and how things really aren't fair.
6That was hard and those guys make too much money!
