  1. my question is how do i become a CEO of a company i know nothing about AND get top pay? because that seems to be common practice amongst these idiots, i'd like to claim my share haha

  2. That really pisses me off as a shareholder when the directors of a company meant to be representing the interests of the shareholders dilute the value of our ownership to overpay one of their mates.

  3. Well isnt this why stock options are made available to them. If they do a good job stock goes up they get a bonus if choose to sell. If they do vad stock goes down they get fired by the board.

  4. On one hand the higher up you go the more the company relies on people to do their job. The hourly employees can usually just move to a different company if their current employer goes under while the CEO will likely loose everything.

    This theory breaks down when you have CEOs who are hired by the board and the people who take the risks are the stock holders and the CEO is essentially an employee of the board.

    If the CEO owns the company I have no problem with them making lots of money as their lives are directly affected by the success of the company while publicly traded companies should have better incentive structures for their CEOs performance as they are just employees of the stock holders who should be making the majority of the money.

  5. Or they don't take a salary and take various stock options another type of bonuses which all add easily up to at least 10 million dollars. But somehow their pay still goes up if the company is starting to fail
