This guy built something really useful. He's not only a CEO but a guy that built something that matters and took all the risks of building a new business. He definitively deserves more

Agreed, he's definitely worked hard to enough to deserve at least a trillion dollars. He's earned at least that much.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, but he really did went out and set his own vision after Cisco leadership rejected his idea for WebEx, despite him being one of the first employees when it was a startup.

The more competition we have, the better.

I don’t even understand Reddit. When Iwata Satoru, the CEO of Nintendo, took a pay cut after the Wii U flopped, everyone praised him. And yet here we are…

Not saying he deserves more though.

I've always had a hard time with this. Should a man who built a tool that millions of people use be evaluated as more valuable than a man who builds homes or drives a garbage truck for example?

I didn't mean that. I compare this guy to regular CEO passing all their career jumping from one company to another on CEO positions. Those guys don't take any risk and ear a lot of money. Compared to them, a founder of a new company that build something new and useful definitively deserves more
