wow.... motorola and sprint execs make too much...By Anonymous on May 6, 2008, 1:45 amconsidering the disasters the companies are.... they should be fired. I get paying good execs, paying the bad ones is just stupid.

I don't get itBy Anonymous on May 5, 2008, 7:34 pmI don't really understand what this article sets out to prove. Yes, Steve Jobs earns $1 a year, but he has received over $2 Billion in compensation from Apple. The same with Michael Dell and a lot of these people.

Most of these people built these companies from the ground up and have received more than their fair share compensation. If this article is proving that literally billions in equity in these companies is sufficient to satisfy these executives and founders, then you have succeeded. Otherwise, I think this article depicts a false economic relationships between the officers and the company.

You need to do more research!By Anonymous on May 5, 2008, 5:20 pmSteve Jobs did not just make $1 in 2007... Its called stock options! they aren't reported the same way as a regular salary but can be a lot more lucrative... do more research next time. you can look at past trades made by major investors and see just how much money those working as ceo's actually cash in.

Obscene especially considering their performanceBy HogHunter on May 5, 2008, 5:06 pmHalf of these companies had horrible years for their stockholders, yet the CEOs still walk away with sinful amounts of money. It amazes me that we have laws like Sarbanes Oxley that saddle corporations with tremendous burdens for reporting the accuracy of the financial data, but we have no accountability for the CEOs to the stockholders. Microsoft lost $1 in share value over the year, Sprint lost more than half their value from over $20 to less than $8. Dell took his company from$26 to $19. 3Com dove from $4.67 to $2.53. Novell $7.29 to $6.23. Qwest $8.88 to $5.41. Sprint who paid their CEO $40 Million managed to dive the stock from over $20 to under $9. The CEO's job is to increase the share price, and the idea that they could rape their companies like this is criminal. The board of directors of these companies should be investigated along with their C level executives. This is just my opinion, but I also lost a lot of my investment money thanks to arrogant CEO's like this. As an investor, I would like more accountability from the executives of publicly held firms. By accountability, I don't just mean that they have to certify their financial reports. I mean they shouldn't get a bonus unless they have improved the investors positions.

but...By Anonymous on May 5, 2008, 4:36 pmhe still has has MORE money than you =P
