I didn't realize Zuckerberg received so much less in compensation. He owns a huge portion of the company, sure, but is compensated ~29m or so less than the COO. Is anyone familiar with why this is?
Mark isn't going anywhere. He would be building Facebook if the pay was $0/yr. This is a token amount that covers his living expenses and little else.
Must be nice to have 29m of "just" living expenses.
$1.7M in living expenses, not $29M.
Still a lot, but a house in Palo Alto and personal security alone might justify most of that. Guys like Steve Jobs who take $1 in salary already have lots of liquidity, and Zuckerberg doesn't necessarily have that.
He has facebook pay for his security detail and private aviation... like a boss.
