I’m ok with that, why not? Let’s say he could make that working for a FAANG or his own for profit, this is the price that keeps him from leaving this current work. Besides, economies of scale, that’s probably pennies compared to actual operating costs. Look at any “non-profit” organization out there, most executives are pushing 7 figures.
So go donate some money to his salary. My point is that they have a ton of money and most of it is tax money We have all paid. Don’t ask me for donations under the “everyone can help” when it’s just a lie. This is the email I sent him a few years back:
Hi Sal -
Out of curiosity, what's the justification for the $200,000 pay increase from 2013 to 2014? Your salary was $348k for 3 years, so why the nearly 60% increase in pay? I, personally, find it difficult to contribute even $3 when I see executives of nonprofits commanding salaries this high. That $200k is 66,666 people donating $3 just to cover that.
I am no accountant but looking at your financials it seems like you all have a ton of cash and assets. I find emails like this to be a bit misleading in the urgency of donations.
