Secretary who made *** a year!

So, How much do you think that the secretary of the Ex. New York Stock Exchange CEO Dick Grasso was making while he was busy pulling down his controversial millions in pay?

$240,000 a year

That's according to a newly released report by the exchange. Pay experts who were called in for their opinions on Ms. SooJee Lee's compensation said that her salary was "excessive and unreasonable."

Quote:
The Times said the report documented what the newspaper called a "culture of excessive pay at the exchange" that included $240,000 a year for Grasso's executive assistant and $130,000 a year for his two drivers.

The Journal noted that Grasso's pay package included such perks as the use of a private plane, a car and driver, vacations, club memberships and security.
Just imagine being a secretary making $240K a year! The median annual income for these jobs is not much more than $36,700.
