    I love breaking down these huge salaries into 2 week chunks because I think it brings the disparity into perspective more for people since most of us get paid 2x a month.

    For $75 million that is a twice a week paycheck (I know CEOs don’t get paid this way) of $3,125,000!

    That’s the total of 1000 employees 2 week paychecks if they all made ~ $40 an hour

      What it must be like to be able to retire after your onboarding seminar.

        When you put it that way, that’s fucking insane. $2 million in retirement plus having my house paid off has always been my retirement goal. Granted, by the time I reach that goal, inflation and the cost of living will probably make that not enough.

        Still, to think this asshat makes that in less than 2 weeks is fucking ridiculous. Like why even work at that point? I realize “work” for a CEO is mostly golfing and expensive dinners, but still…

      $75,000,000 ÷ 26 = $2,884,614

      $2.8 million every 2 weeks, not $3.125 million twice a week.

      The reality is bad enough without exaggeration.

          That is exactly what I did. I’m not a maths person. So maybe me trying to do math in a internet comment section wasn’t the best decision.
