Top CEO Pay Equals 3489 Years for Typical Worker
Ever have one of those days when you wonder why you even bother trying?
Via:
David Simon of Simon Property received a pay package worth more than $137 million for last year, and the typical CEO took home $9.6 million, according to an analysis by The Associated Press.
...
A minimum wage worker — paid $7.25 per hour, as some workers at Simon malls are — would have to work one month shy of 9,096 years to make what Simon made last year. A person making the national median salary, $39,312 by AP calculations, would have to work 3,489 years.
Do something special for yourself this weekend, my math says you deserve it.
