For Wired, a Revival Lacks Ads
- timr 17y agoIt makes me a little bit ill that this guy gets paid $50k for a single speaking gig. Even we assume that those speaking events are net profitable fundraisers (an assumption I sincerely doubt), I have to question a system that pays anyone a third of a year's salary (in San Francisco) for a single evening of work. How many employees could have been retained last year by not paying this guy to expound upon tired clichés over rubber chicken?
- fallentimes 17y agoI'm willing to bet many of the gigs are from big corporations who often love cliches and making up superfluous words.
