Cash Out Kings
from the follow-the-money dept
Is your stock portfolio a mere fraction of what it once was? Wonder where all that money went? Fortune has put together a nice list of executives who cashed out big time while their companies were collapsing. As they say in their introduction to the list, "top officials of many of the companies that have crashed the hardest were getting immensely, extraordinarily, obscenely wealthy."
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
