In some cases, using the 10:1 ratio, it could be less and in others far more. In this guy's case, he put his own salary at the same amount as his workers (70K), which is way beyond the 10:1 deal. Very admirable. However, that's really unusual so using the 10:1 model, he could pay himself 700K to his lowest paid worker at 70K and it would still be far more equitable than the ridiculous spreads we see, now, with CEOs making 400 times the average worker. However great someone thinks they are, being paid ten times more than the lowest paid in the company should be adequate for their greatness.

(OP) User ID: 78212432 United States 02/28/2020 11:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Most corporations ignore the hidden costs of paying shit wages, and paying some people more than others for the same work, which breeds resentment. Quoting: Monty Python It's actually in their best interest to have a happy, productive workforce with low turnover. Totally agree. If your company can easily pay you 70K instead of 30 or 40, in which case are you going to be more satisfied and likely to care about doing a good job? It's not complicated.
