Seattle PI | at | by Mike
The world's richest man is finally making $1 million a year.
Microsoft said in a regulatory filing Wednesday that Bill Gates received $600,000 in salary and $400,000 in bonus in its most recent fiscal year, an 11 percent increase in total compensation for the company's chairman and chief software architect.
In addition, the company detailed raises for Chief Executive Steve Ballmer and three executives promoted last week to new roles as divisional presidents, pushing the total compensation of each to $1 million or more.
