There's at least several tens of thousands in 'tech' worldwide taking home mid 7 figures to 8 figure salaries USD or USD equivalent, and not including those in the C-suite either.

They are just rarely mentioned on HN because there's already enough tech billionaires to exhaust the patience and attention span of most readers seeking out that kind of content.

That sounds absolutely unbelievable to me. Any sources on that? Or even single examples

Most, if not all, Google fellows? Just randomly pick one.
