    If you figure each engineer costs apple $250,000 a year, that’s the equivalent of 250 engineers. Could you imagine what apple could accomplish with 5 extra engineering departments? In what world is this one guy worth that much?

    Poor bastard. It’s going to be a challenge living on an eight digit salary, making more in half a day than I do in a year…

          I tend to exaggerate, but my actual income is just under €12,000 a year. Adult german but can’t work full time for health reasons. But even with a average income here you would rarely go over 25.000€, which is still a joke in comparison what this guy makes.

              Here’s the summary for the wikipedia article you mentioned in your comment:

              This is the map and list of European countries by monthly average wage (annual divided by 12 months) gross and net income (after taxes) average wages for full-time employees in their local currency and in euros. The chart below reflects the average (mean) wage as reported by various data providers. The salary distribution is right-skewed, therefore more than 50% of people earn less than the average gross salary. Thus, the median figures provided further below might be more representative than averages. These figures will shrink after income tax is applied. In certain countries, actual incomes may exceed those listed in the table due to the existence of grey economies. In some countries, social security, contributions for pensions, public schools, and health are included in these taxes.

      You could buy an Apple branded polishing cloth. Pretty much the same as a donation.

      Would it even be cannibalism? I’m pretty sure all the billionaires are some form of reptiles.

    On no, poor man, how he can survive on this small Salaray which is more money than all of us in the comments will collectively see in our life in this miserably dystopia.

    My cold dead heart goes out to the reptile.

    Pffft, look at this loser over here, only making $63 million. Maybe he’ll have to start cutting back on the avocado toast to make ends meet now.

    That’s why we don’t see him wearing a vision pro. The poor guy can’t afford it.
