Fords CEO gets $25 million in bonus
We better all go out and buy a new Super Duty to help FORD out. They are loosing millions and paying out millions in bonuses. That type of stuff pisses me off. I don't buy at HOME DEPOT because of that same thing. Maybe I'll look to Toyota at least they don't rub my nose in the way they pay CEO's. I'm a supporter of this forum until the forum CEO starts getting crazy salaries & bonuses.

So far the Ford family has lost 541 million dollars due to the drop in their stock value, and they still claim to believe in Bill Fords leadership. Well, Bill Ford as chairman of the Board had to authorize this payout...to himself, which is unreal. Isn't he still considered CEO? Mulally is only the president. Why would Ford take this kind of money after the company put up their entire assets for working capital? The idiots have taken possession of the asylum.

It's not like they're taxing you! Now that's a can o' worms right there.

Mulally, was paid $25 million for 4 months of work. I thought they said he was CEO. This was on ABC News last night. My anger about it is Ford closed several plants, laid off several thousand workers, and IMO $25 million dollars could of been used to keep JOBS IN THE USA. I have a hard time spending my HARD earned money with a company that rubs my nose in how many millions they pay their CEO. or what ever he is. When I have a choice. NOBODY IS WORTH THAT KIND OF PAY PERIOD. Not when American jobs are going overseas. so these guys can get even bigger pay checks & bonuses.

Good luck buddy, I've been raked over the coals for years for having basically the same attitude.
Oh, I'll still buy a Ford if it's what I want, but not for some pseudo-patriotic reason.

How do you buy stock in a "private company"???
My understanding is the Ford family still owns the majority of shares....but it's still a publicly traded company.

yea, and make sure you don't vote in someone that will cater to ford when the time comes they need help from the government for a bail out. and make sure if you live in an area that has ford related products and manufactoring to not to vote in people that will want to give them any tax breaks or concessions. after all, they got plenty of money to throw around it seems.
