If Ryan Cohen took a salary in that leauge the bear thesis would still be alive and the turnaround of GameStop might never happen (or be significantly delayed). My executive chairman has other plans 🙌

There are people taking in millions each year, not for doing the job of running a company, but for owning companies. There’s definitely overlap, but I’m not sure the two are the same list
The comment above wasn’t talking about them. He was talking about the CEOs listed here. Time cook makes ~$100m. The company could instead afford to hire ~1000 software developers instead. Is he doing more work than 1000 developers? Certainly not.
Yeah that’s kind of my point, though. I agree Tim Cook doesn’t do the work of 1000 developers, but I would suggest he does work comparable to at least 1 developer.
A “list of the most egregiously overpaid people in the world” really should include people who get paid not for doing work, but just owning things. CEOs are certainly egregiously overpaid, but if someone gets paid 1m a year to be a CEO, and someone else gets paid 1m a year for simply owning a company, I would contend the owner is more overpaid than the CEO.
