Want to be a CEO? The pay's not bad

* How do I get me one of those CEO jobs like at Washington Mutual, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac where I get paid millions to run a company into the ground and millions more to leave?

The job of running an American corporation with billions in assets and thousands of employees is reserved for a select few with the necessary experience, expertise, vision and wisdom to handle such a grave responsibility -- or else, for those with the right connections and friends.

* Who are these friends who are handing out the company's money like that?

The directors -- the people who are ultimately responsible for overseeing operation of the company and looking out for the interests of shareholders.

* Damn fine job they're doing of it. Can't someone stop them? Who voted for those guys, anyway?

You did -- if you're a stockholder.

You work hard and do your job

you make money and then you buy CEO spot :)

be your own ceo.

I thought everyone on GFY was making too much money to complain about corporate CEO pay. dollah dollah bill y'all.

Get your MBA from a big name university and you to can run a business into the ground, while having lunch on the companies time.

maybe they should hire people based on character instead of previous careers
