@stux lolol "CEOs who actually dont do much"... This is so out of touch with reality.
Dont get me wrong the argument that people who do dirty work are underpaid is fine, and i have a lot of respect for those workers. But if you think a CEO, the person who created the company and rests on their decision making shoulders to keep it alive, doesnt do much then you are very VERY disconnected with the reality here.
I dont think I ever met a CEO who didnt work more hours than anyone else in the company, take more risk (financial and other kinds), or have to deal with more stress, than a CEO of a succeeding company...
All that, even if you do everything perfect as a CEO, its still a gamble if your company succeeds, and since your usually also the owner that means its likel climbing mount everest just to put all your money into a slot machine.
