Thats how a CEO makes their money, they don't care about 1$ salaries, as a matter of fact most CEOs make that salary.

This is nothing new, alothough he should have had this salary from the beginning.

As an example, Bill Gates has had a 1$ salary for years.


WOW did not know that , no wonder he drives a VW bettle
