Topic	High CEO salaries are seriously overrated
SK8T3R215 07/26/17 10:00:28 AM #14:	TheBiggerWiggle posted... Public salaries often exclude benifits, bonuses, etc. Total compensation including those and other types of compensation are filed in the Form 10-KT. 1337toothbrush posted... A new bullshit study. Anyone can come out with a study "supporting" any idea. Not sure what makes this study "bullshit" when they explain the information they use but ok. Is the other study great because it supports your view that CEOs are basically worthless? Izec posted... The problem is when CEOs start whining that they need corporate bailouts or that they're being forced to fire people and shut down projects when in reality they could just pay themselves less money. It's all nonsense. Corporate bailouts aren't things that happen outside of an economic crisis. If they want a "bailout" that usually means they are filing for bankruptcy and aren't going to be bailed out by the government. And firing people or ending projects can be due to changes in the economy, their industry, and the outlook of the project. Cutting executives salaries wouldn't help if a project will be unprofitable or if demand for goods declines. If they cannot shift the strategy due to this then they will eventually be fired as returns drop for shareholders due to wasting resources on failed projects and not moving to address shifts in the industry. --- New York Knicks, New York Jets, New York Yankees. <cite>SK8T3R215 posted [p:883624219] in High CEO s...
