I was reading the paper the other day and an article on company CEOs caught my eye. It seems that they have given themselves large bonuses and pay raises even though their companies are not doing as well financially as in the past. Their company stocks aren't doing as well, their stockholders aren't getting as large a return on their investments as usual and the net profits are dropping but they saw the need to up their own annual pay. One CEO had an annual combined income of roughly 92 BILLION. Uh, what?
I must have had something in my eye and my vision must have been blurry. Surely no one earns that much money in one year.
