On July 1, 2016, Killearn Company acquired 84,000 of the outstanding shares of Shaun Company for $20 per share. This acquisition gave Killearn a 25 percent ownership of Shaun and allowed Killearn to significantly influence the investee's decisions.

I have always been a firm believer in the saying "it's all about who you know." In the business world especially, this statement is proved true more times than not. An argument for why CEOs get paid too much is the inconsistency of compensation. "...it is reasonable to assume that the people who become CEOs because corporations offer $8 million per year, on average, more talented than the people who would become CEOs if corporations offered $1 million per year. But there are two reasons to think that they are not that much more talented, and so not worth the extra pay." I do agree with the argument that the CEO making $8 million a year isn't always more talented than a CEO making $1 million a year, but the CEO that is making $8 million had to go through the work to get that job. Whether they knew someone that got them into a very good position in order to acquire the job or not doesn't matter. There a lot of very bright people who are not making as much money as someone who is not as bright as them, even in the same line of work. People get much different opportunities to succeed than others. There is a stat that states a CEO on average makes 301 times the amount of a factory worker for that same company; I do believe that the CEO is not doing 301 times the amount of work as the factory worker nor that the CEO is actually working for all of that money; however, they still worked hard enough to get themselves into that position. So with me stating that I would say that no, CEOs are not making too much money. Their job is very important, and I would assume that along with that large compensation comes with much stress and timely work. Have any of you ever had a job where you were doing the same amount and kind of work as someone but making a significant less amount of money? Are you doing things now that will set you up for success or failure in the future?
