    It must not be that stressful if you have $170k leftover to pay yourself.

    Most people work more stressful jobs for considerably less. We should stop giving CEOs a pass.

    This shouldn’t need to be said, but most people are useful idiots so here we are.

      You’re missing the point. There are easier jobs in the same industry for the same pay.

      We’re not comparing tech CEO to roofers. We’re comparing them to other people in tech.

        Uhh, no.

        This is directly the point: Most people work more stressful jobs for considerably less. We should stop giving CEOs a pass.

        Oh, and don’t forget about this one!

        but most people are useful idiots so here we are.

          Still not getting it I think.

          Why would someone choose a more stressful job for the same pay?

          This does not imply a lack of more stressful jobs that pay less. Obviously every idiot would take an easier job that pays more if they could.

          Oh, and don’t forget about this one!

          I didn’t forget. I chose to ignore it because it makes you look tacky and I’m being polite. But if you insist on pressing the point, there you go.
