Johnny Depp spends "Over $150,000/month on full-time security for his children" according to current revelations. So $900K/year for someone who's not very famous isn't unreasonable I suppose.

  Johnny Depp is also in a huge financial hole for irresponsible spending... Not a comparison.

    It's easy to work out the cost of full time security. Lets say you need 2 people on rotation, they do 12 hours per day each (doable because they get to relax while client is at home etc.) then multiply by a reasonable salary for skilled labor like 70k then you get to 140k per year per person easily.

$890k seems high in that for the previous year it was only $328k. I guess they had to triple everything for BCP.

    I would say that Zuckerberg is much more recognizable than Spiegel. Likely gets mobbed where ever he goes.

      You forget to Spiegel is engaged to Miranda Kerr, supermodel and is likely to be super visible outside of work.

    $1.3M for its COO (Sheryl Sandberg), not CFO.

      True, sloppy copying. I guess the CFO is safe as long as the stock performs well :-)
