As someone who enjoys technology and playing with all the new gadgets that come on the market, I am fascinated with any advances to the field. We live in a world filled with people who are always looking to the future, asking what will come next? How can we make electronics smaller and faster? Well, for the people who figure it out first, there is a lot of money to be made. I recently read an article about one of these men who has figured it out. Most people know him as Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple Computers. Steve is still trying to make things smaller and faster and Apple has just announced one of their newest products the MacBook Air. Now, I do not want to ramble about how great the MacBook Air is, but rather note that in this article it states that Steve Jobs, who continues to make huge technological advances, has only been taking an annual salary of $1.00 since 1997, thus making it possible to give the rest of the people in his company big bonuses. I know he is still a billionaire so it might seem like a small loss but think about the money he could have been making if he was taking a full cut. I think that it is really amazing to see that there are still people in this world of technology who realize that it is not all about the money. So, what I am trying to say is, way to go Steve for being a great person, even if most of that extra money just went to the other top people in the company.
