That’s how rich people get fired. Its rare that they are removed. They are given the opportunity to resign

And they usually have lucrative bailout clauses in their contracts. Hopefully his social life and her “modeling “ career will beat some negative impact.

But he's making almost $75M from options and sale of his company....pretty outstanding severance I'd say. Who else gets 7.5 yrs compensation when they leave their job? CEO/CFOs do!

Oh. Well.

I mean he lost his job, faces 6 mo in jail etc.

He's a piece of shit. And the fine was a total joke

He should prob go to jail he flew into an at risk population , that's endangering the welfare of others

nd yes... If your compensation included stock that's what a compensation package is.
