Was watching CNN and they said " Coming up, find out how much was Strauss Kahn salary and perks"
From the tone of the CNN anchor, I was expecting Astronomial sum, Guess how much his Annual Salary??? -- $400,000. They annouced with great hoo haa that that was more than Obama's salary
On top of that, Strauss Kahn also gets a 79,000 allowance for travel and entertianment etc.
It made me think that myexpecations of top guy in top position were set too high and that is why I got a shock when i found out that Strauss Kahn and Obama were paid so little. Not in line with Top 10 % earners in USA.
