Top Paid CEO’s

December 11th, 2006 Leave a comment Go to comments

I was recently asked the question about who are the top paid CEO’s in the world.  The basic answer to the question is “i don’t know” but a quick search of Google turned up the Forbes Magazine top US CEO pay packages.

Richard Fairbank from Capital One Financial topped the list with a lazy $250m per annum.
