Here's one rich dude who's deciding his OWN fair share...
And he's given me a plan.. Should the Obama/Reid/Pelosi Revolution of the Masses get 4 more years and raise my taxes to 40 or 60% --- then I'm gonna make sure they don't get it. Instead I'll cut my own salary by a sufficient amount to hire 20 or 30 people just to sit around and tell me how great I am..
And maybe task them to post on USMB for me while I'm busy...
Seriously --- it illustrates the point that to MOST of the rich -- the game is NOT to make more money.. It's the success of the program, company or ideas that their creativity drives them towards..
Network: Leno took 50% pay cut to reduce 'Tonight Show' layoffs - CNN.com
(CNN) -- Jay Leno took one for the team, in the form of a $15 million pay cut, to protect the staff of NBC's "The Tonight Show" from further cuts.
An NBC Universal representative confirmed Friday that the host took a 50% pay reduction.
The representative also confirmed that Leno extended his contract until September 2014.
A source with direct knowledge of the situation told CNN last month that 20 to 25 employees of "The Tonight Show" were let go and that Leno made the salary concession to prevent even more staff reductions.
According to the source, the layoffs were part of a plan to adjust the show's expenses to be more in line with typical late-night programming as opposed to prime-time fare.
