Maybe we should all just become CEO’s of Activision Blizzard. You get a lot of money and take all the credit.
Yeah. Learned that later on.
That is a made up argument on your part to counter my statement regarding Blizzard being head quartered in an area know for it’s insanely high cost of living (nearly double the US average with the median home price there being almost $900,000).
would be a nice change of pace from finance.
I could see myself in that role yeah.
So what is stopping you from starting your own business?

I find it amusing how people start playing the left/right paradigm when this subject comes up.

They’re doing gang busters. Maybe they could share some of that success with paying livable wages to their employees, as opposed to squeezing them for every last drop to maximize shareholder value.
We used to invest in our workforce in America, but at some point in the last 40-50 years we lost our way. Now we have corporate apologists on the internet fighting against paying people a reasonable wage.

Can you not afford a meal? Do you work at Blizzard? Is that why you’re urging everyone to hire underpaid Blizzard employees? Are you looking for a job?
