CEOs make over 300 times more?! Do they deserve that? Do they work 300 times harder or smarter?!

Yes.

Years of preparation, hundreds of books, thousands of hours, twenty four hour days, not-stop to the minute schedules, high alert, high risk and high output every minute of every day. Fighting falling asleep at our desks and on our flights after the weeks third all-nighter. Sweating through our clothes and always on our toes. Working so hard we puke and then wiping our chin and working some more.

Yea, we deserve it.
