After leading his company through a year of unbridled financial success and unparalleled market share growth in both the home computer and smart phone sectors, Apple CEO Steve Jobs will finally take home his paycheck. He earned a buck this year. That’s ten thin dimes.
Of course, we’re all Apple fans here, so we know that’s Jobs’ customary salary. We also the man’s hardly hurting for money: he’s sitting on 5.5 million shares of Apple stock, which is worth a cool $1.1 billion. Additionally, he owns a 7.4 percent stake in Disney, valued at $4.5 billion. In other words, the man can afford to buy us all an iPod.
Still, has a buck ever been harder earned?
