That is so laughably short sighted that you could not have given a better example as to why CEOs are all the same.

Average CEO tenure is less than 7 years, not sure how you'd practically be able to accomplish any kind of compensation plan on a longer time horizon. What is the person supposed to do in the meantime, life off of savings?

They will have to live off of a salary, like all their employees below.

A dreadful thought, I know. Living like the proles do, ew.
