Apple Pays Jobs For Use Of Jet The Company Bought Him

from the sign-me-up dept

Okay, okay. So the guy is only taking a $1 salary, but Apple did buy Steve Jobs his very own jet - and, even better, now they're paying him millions of dollars to use the jet that they bought him. It's the gift that keeps on giving. These days, when companies are being extra careful to do anything that seems questionable when it comes to compensating their executives, you would think this would raise some red flags.

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
