Ok. Hunted.

If that makes you feel better sure.

No need to if you understand.

Quote:

Well I am sorry. But it seems as if it did define you.

No matter what anyone tells you anybody that grew up in that environment it has had some type of effect on them.

Quote:

Have any of them actually had a shot at it in the past? And why do you bring up the fact that he is half black? He is still black and has a shot. That does say something about it.

I was being sarcastic, since certain posters on here love to say that he is only half Black.

Quote:

So there are no black CEOs?

Ok give me 5 Black CEOs that run a major corporation.

Quote:

There are no blacks in places of power in the US?

Sure there are some in places of power, but do they have the power?

Quote:

Apples and oranges man.

Ok, cherries and grapes. Now we can make a fruit basket.

Quote:

Nor does much of what is said on this board.

Touche'

I am sure it did. Anything that happens to you during your life will have an effect on you. But that does not mean it has to define you.

Roger that.

In 2004 the African-American MVC, or most valuable chief, was E. Stanley O'Neal, CEO of Merrill Lynch & Co., one of the nation’s largest brokerages. In 2004, it had earnings of $4.4 billion on revenues of $22 billion, and earnings per share beat analyst expectations. In return, O’Neal, whose salary was $700,000, received a bonus of $31 million.

Quote:

Last year after American Express earned net income of $3 billion, or $2.68 per share, its CEO Kenneth I. Chenault got an $8 million bonus on top of his $1 million salary. Chenault also received $500,000 in incentive pay and exercised stock options that brought his total compensation to $18.5 million.

Quote:

John W. Thompson has an enviable job and enviable pay. As CEO of Symantec Corp., he heads the world’s largest security software company. Its divisions include the Norton brand of products and Veritas, the storage software leader. In 2004, Thompson's salary was $750,000 but he earned a $3 million bonus, plus incentives and stock options that brought his pay to $14.8 million.

Quote:

It is too early to tell if 2005 is a good year for Richard D. Parsons, the vintner, as the Time Warner leader owns a Tuscany vineyard. But 2004 was a fine year for Parsons the CEO as the world's biggest media and entertainment firm neatened its balance sheet, saw federal accounting probes enter the settlement stage, and the share price rose. In 2004, TW revenues were $42.1 billion and net income was $3.21 billion. Consequently, Parsons earned an $8 million bonus on top of his $1.5 million salary and with incentive pay included, he took home $15 million.

Quote:

Last year was Robert Wood's rookie year as CEO of Crompton Corp., a 4,800-employee chemical company and he took every prize. The former Dow Chemical exec doubled revenue to $4 billion, transformed Crompton into the third-largest U.S. specialty chemicals firm, found a way to save about $100 million, and raised shareholder value 69 percent. Thus, his $760,000 salary, $728,000 bonus and $2.6 million incentive pay added up to about $4 million that was richly deserved.

I believe all of those are fortune 500 companies.

Quote:

Sure there are some in places of power, but do they have the power?

Well I guess you are going to have to define power. Power to me is having the ability to effect change in your sphere of influence. So yeah, they have power.

Sorry I am a carnivore.
