The 10 Highest Paid CEOs

#1
Sanford Weill
Chairman & CEO, Citigroup Inc.

Direct deposit: $19,484,414
Perks: $286,471,364 option value + $8,687,442 restricted stock awards
Total Compensation: $314,643,220

Illustrious company: Weill's Citigroup board is made up of an "all-star team," according to the New York Observer (which happens to be owned by his former partner, Arthur Carter), including former Treasury Secretary Bob Rubin and President Gerald Ford.
Dubious distinction: Weill gave shareholders very little bang for his salary buck, according to the April 16 issue of Business Week.
Getaway: Weill jets to his huge Saranac Lake, N.Y., country home to be with wife Joan, his spouse of more than 45 years.
Kids: Marc and Jessica, both in their 40s, worked for dad at one time, but the pressurized environment reportedly led both to leave the company.
