    This is probably because they take out the rest in dividends, that way you don't pay as much in contributions. Thats how it works in the UK anyway

    Of course, all of this "getting paid $1 a year" is a non-issue because they get so much stock and options. Steve Jobs even got a Gulfstream V out of it. Hey, I'd gladly take a $1 year salary if they threw in all of the other benefits these guys get.
