The man in charge always gets the credit. I have some AMZN stock. I wouldn't trade Bezos for someone cheaper. Would you?

- ALittleLight 8y agoTo my knowledge Bezos gets paid only 80 grand a year - so no.
- skookumchuck 8y agoThat's salary, not compensation.
- Pharmakon 8y agoIt’s pretty much both. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-typical-amazon-worker-made-less-than-30000-in-2017-2018-04-18 https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-typical-amazon-worker-... Companies this year are reporting their CEO pay in relation to the compensation of a median worker for the first time as a result of a 2015 rule mandated by the Dodd-Frank act. Amazon Chief Executive Jeff Bezos recorded total compensation of $1,681,840 in 2017, almost all of which is money paid for personal security — Bezos drew a salary of $81,840 and received no additional stock. Bezos’s compensation is 59 times the median Amazon worker’s. He doesn’t need to draw a fat salary or get more stock, he already owns more than $110,000,000,000 in stock.
