- brutusx, on 01/27/2008, -0/+1It isn't misleading. Think in terms of net worth. If 50% of his net worth is Apple stock, and that went down 10%, his net worth just went down 5%.

- s1mph0ny, on 01/27/2008, -0/+1I think this is a perfect example of why paying CEO's in stocks IS a good idea. The company does poorly, and the CEO loses out. If your pay went up or down based on how well your division performed, you'd probably work harder. If Jobs is worth his pay, he'll bring the stock price back up.
