Well kind of the right industry but the wrong part of it… or something.
I wonder how Oracle CEO Larry Ellison copes - SEC filings released today show that his 2008 fiscal year total compensation package was USD84.6 million. Ellison also realised a $544 million windfall from cashing in stock option. Other awe-inspiring stats: Oracle paid Ellison a $1 million base salary and $10.8 million in non-equity incentive compensation. Oracle also paid $1.4 million to protect Ellison, with most of the bill covering security at his 45-acre home in Silicon Valley.
How does he cope? Must be tough making ends meet…

Give it back Larry
You know about the famous napkin where Larry’s finances were laid out by his accountant and he was told to reign back his spending?
@Dennis - no I hadn’t heard that one….
