Reddit gave more than 1/3rd of its revenue to 2 people, plus options. Holy fuck.

Apple doesn’t even pay it executives close to what Reddit is dishing out, even if you consider the stock they get.

Do NOT invest in this company. Now that we can see the books, it’s clear how poorly things are actually run.

Tim Cook of apple got paid $92 million in 2022 - a massive degree of overcompensation in my opinion, and an amount he got sued for.

If he got paid at a comparable percentage of revenue to spez last year that would have been (amusingly) a 92 Billion dollar paycheck - 1000x as much.

Regardless of how much I dislike the guy personally investors should be running away screaming from this IPO.
