What it comes down to is the board wanted a large pile of cash so they could do more of whatever it is they like doing, which apparently is not what many of us think their core mission should be.
I look forward to reading how much the board members are being paid now, and how much they will be paid in a years time.
- morisy 7y agoMost non-profit boards pay $0. The Internet Society is one of them, with Barnes taking $0 from the organization (as board members, they also have to disclose if a related organization pays them): https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/display_990/541650477/12_2018_prefixes_54-58%2F541650477_201712_990_2018121916022417 https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/display_990/54165... There are a few exceptions to the boards-get-paid-$0, but they're rare and doubt personal financial motivations are part of the decision.
