In other words, you get paid a lot of money.
Okay?
All right. Here are media examples of people getting big paydays, big financial rewards in salary or other forms:
1. Warren Buffett tells the BBC the American public can’t be blamed for its anger over the damaging economic fallout from the last fall’s near-collapse of the global financial system, especially since no one has been held criminally responsible.
In a video clip posted by the BBC ahead of its U.K. broadcast tonight (Monday) of a special program on Buffett, the Omaha billionaire is asked about the public’s “visceral” reaction to executives of financial firms getting big paydays, even after those firms had to be rescued by the government.
“It’s infuriating - I can speak more about the American public - but it’s infuriating to people to see their friends losing their jobs. In terms of seeing their friends having their homes foreclosed upon, whatever it may be. And, nobody going to jail. It was one thing in Enron. At least you had (Jeffrey) Skilling and Ken Lay, or WorldCom or those things. Society at least felt there was a little bit of vengeance taking place. But here nobody’s going to jail. In fact, a lot of them are walking off with tons of money which they got, in many cases, with preferential tax terms. So the American public’s exasperation of this is very understandable.”
