Well, I am easily. My problem is finding someone that has the money to pay me what I'm worth.

I've had dreams of being a Rock Star...and making that kinda dough.
I'd also want a custom car collection worth that much, and a large Harem that would make Hugh Hefner jealous.
As it is...I've spent all my dough on calls to Anne Hathaway.
Who STILL isn't returning them. Heartless wench. :lol: |

I'll tell her to call you when I see her tonight. Granted, she probably won't hear me from the bushes outside her house, but still..... |

Quote: The top earner of 2007 was Oracle chief Larry J. Ellison. Ellison drew just a $1 million salary, but realized $182 million from the exercise of vested stock options last year
So he was paid 1 million, yet excersized $182 million worth of stock options.
That could've been 20 years worth of stock options he's piled up. Just like exxon-mobils "record" CEO making $300 million in one year.
Not only that, when they were given the options, the stock might've been worth $1. Now it's worth $50, and they still can buy it for $1.
Usually they have a number of years to "excersize" their option.
So in other words, it really isn't that big of a deal.
Besides, if the officers of the company agreed to the pay package 10+ years ago, who are we to judge?
I find it funny how these articles never explain stock options. |
