Hardly. The fact is their stock options are pay enough and allow them to be wealthy enough to NOT require a salary. Why would they want to cost the company more money for no reason? That would make no sense? <em>Jaan Kanellis's last blog post..<a href='http://www.jaankanellis.com/back-to-work-and-happy-about-it/' rel="nofollow">Back To Work and Happy About It?</a></em> Jaded and repelled?

If more companies followed that model, employees of those companies would be a lot better off. Although I guess if more companies did that, it wouldn't be newsworthy...
