Steve Jobs of Apple was famously paid $1 per annum as a salary

Ballmer manages a far bigger businss than Sony and yet is paid a similar amount, he also has had pay cuts (which he requested) in previous years.

 

"Besides this, Jobs held $1.4 billion worth of Apple stock and $4.4 billion worth of Disney stock in 2010. Disney’s investors get 35 cents annual for each share, from which Jobs used to receive $48 million a year."

Yep don't think he cared about having a $1 million salary.

Ballmer is a billionaire. He is at #51 on Forbes richest people on the planet. I don't think he cares about salary either.

Zzzzz
