Steve Jobs Takes $1 Annual Salary for 2009
There've been a bunch of stories today about Steve Jobs' $1 salary that make it sound like a philanthropic exercise or some kind of response to the current recession—but Apple fans know that Steve Jobs has taken a $1 salary for about a decade. Of course, it's not like he needs a paycheck; his stock in Apple is valued at $1.1 billion, and his stock in Disney at $4.5 billion. Interestingly, he is usually reimbursed for miscellaneous expenses; last year, he was reimbursed $871,000, but this year only $4,000. He has been out on sick leave for a long time, but still, that's a big difference. This has been making the rounds (today I saw it on the AP, NYTimes, and HuffPo), but I'm sure you guys already knew it—so I tossed it into Remainders. [AP]
Forse qualcuno dei nostri imprenditori, invece di aumentarsi lo stipendio, dovrebbe prendere esempio e lavorare sodo per dare valore alla sua azienda - e di conseguenza a sé stesso - invece che garantirsi bonus e premi per poi licenziare i dipendenti.
