Much has been said (although little publicized) about CEOs and their interests, about their decisions and their abilities. One thing I know is true: Their mega-payloads are no joke:
Richard Grasso, former chairman and CEO of the NYSE. After various years of getting "only" 10-15 million bonuses, working for a supposedly nonprofit organization mind you!, decides to give himself a one-time payout of $ 140 million dollars for doing nothing whatsoever.
Feel free to add on to the list.
