No, money is the thing you use to allow yourself to spend 200% of your time at work. Private tutors to school your kids so you don't have to. Cleaning services so you don't have to spend time cleaning. First class plane tickets so you can relax, sleep or work on the flight. Private driver or Ubers so you can work while driving places. A personal assistant to book travel, appointments and everything else mentioned so far.

I'm sure he has an EA at the company's expense at this point.

None of the items you mentioned cost much

The average private driver salary's in NYC is about 60k a year according to Google btw[0]. The average yearly -household- income in the US is 68k.

It's a massive luxury to be able to afford such a thing.

Presumably this would be a perk provided by Airbnb directly rather than employed by the CEO himself?

"or Ubers"

Uber XL or black (need space and comfort to work efficiently) for 1 hour a day probably adds up to $200/day or around $50k/year. Which isn't cheap.

edit: That's a rough estimate and probably a low estimate. You'd be using Uber for commuting, going to work social events, driving kids on weekends, driving out of the city on vacation, etc.

Wow, that's crazy. I pay 28000USD/yr in London, most of my friends pay about the same.
