Disney CEO Made $44 Million This Year

For that much money, we demand an explanation for Tomorrowland.

We sincerely hope that Disney CEO Robert Iger’s friend and loved ones enjoyed a spectacular holiday season. According to The Wall Street Journal, Iger made $44 million this year, more than enough for him to buy everyone he knows many amazing gifts.

The $44 million pay package is actually a three percent decline from last year. Iger’s base salary increased by two percent, to $2.5 million.

Iger’s huge paycheck is notable because in October, Disney allegedly ordered ESPN to cut more than 300 staffers in an effort to reduce costs.

The world is a strange place for everyone but the rich.
