author=Bandito Daily Salary of 1 millions dollars? Looks like something that happens in real life for some reason.
In reality, CEOs make an annual salary of about 200k-1.5 million annually, and their real meat of their pay comes from their bonuses.
The average compensation of a public company CEO is 20 million a year. The caricature of the joke is that even if a CEO destroyed shareholder value, they have the gall to give themselves raise and call it appropriate.
