Fascinating.

So why are we entertaining 100M salaries? That sounds like giving away money.

The board of directors believes the CEO adds more shareholder value than they cost.

That's so fascinating.

The janitors don't?

They certainly dont add $100 million of value. Probably add at least as much as they're paid but that's not saying much

How do you come to that conclusion?

The cleanliness of an office space is a gigantic force multiplier for productivity. I wouldn't be surprised if janitors had a bigger impact.

value is about opportunity cost. If anyone off the street could replace you your value is the lowest amount a competent person would demand on the market.

Do you really think anyone off the street could be a top-performing janitor?
