[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 968685, member: 4886"] PT Stewie, I have a question for you. I'm sure being a private company you don't know what the profit margin is for that company or what the family who owns it makes themselves. You seem very happy at this company and that is great. You also indicated the company is successful and they take care of the people. My question is, would your opinion change if you found out that company has a profit margin of 40% (over 3 times UPS profit margins). What if you found out the company owners made tens of millions of dollars running the company. Would you still have the same opinion of the company? Or would you at that point say we want more money? It's not fair? My point is that what you do and what you are paid s/b independent of what the company earns. Once you earn money and then invest in a company, you are risking your money, but you can be rewarded when the company makes money. [/QUOTE]
