It's impossible to understand how anyone could reasonably need (or, really, deserve) to earn this much money. Anything more than a couple of million a year is just ridiculous.

No one is really "earning" that — even if they're overseeing massive success, it's the workers making it happen.
Via Morning Brew

The Institute for Policy Studies analyzed the 100 companies in the S&P 500 with the lowest median pay & found that overall CEO compensation increased nearly 35% over five yrs, outpacing employees' gains.

At those 100 companies,the average CEO-to-worker pay gaphit 632 to 1 last yr.
