    CEO pay. When is it too much? http://www.aflcio.org/corporatewatch/paywatch/ceou/database.cfm#C
    Notice one of the best CEO’s is also the lowest paid. Steve jobs $1. Did not find my company here but inquiring minds want to know. Am not endorsing the union but it is a very interesting lineup.

    For the last several years rates have gone down and so have prices. Could it be possible for rates to go up and home prices too? I’m not seeing the demand myself but stranger things have happened.

    Prices would have dropped more if rates weren’t so low. Works the same way on the up side. Rates and prices could go up at the same time, but prices wouldn’t go as high as they would with lower rates.

    Steve Jobs’ salary is $1/year but he really takes in billions with his stock options. That aside, I do have problems with CEO compensation if their company is losing money yet they get multimillion pay.
    I have no problem if their company makes $.

    Yes. I don’t fault the CEO for taking the money. The board that elects him is probably only listening to the more/most important stock holders who have the clout in stocks and actually vote for board members. I know a lot of Piggs here own stock but how many of you have ever voted for a board member? I know I haven’t because I am in a 401K which is spread pretty thinly and does not allow me to buy a single piece of stock. Sure I get prospectus’s and can contact hedge fund managers, but I digress. Everybody(ok maybe not everybody) thinks they are over paid and yet no one does anything about it.
