Amazing. Guy was making 1-2Bn/year. He was definitely underpaid even if much of that money was franchise value.

You remember when the Public Opinion was outraged with Citi's bonus arrangement with their contracted boutique Oil Trading Firm that was promised 50% of the profits? I thought this guy made Citi close to $1 Billion and some news source cried "Foul!".


Anyone who brings that much value to a investing firm deserves's their weight in gold!

Making billions for the firm, and getting less than 1% cut.
But would he have been able to make as much if he had not been at the firm?
