Not quite. The champions for the 2003, 2004, and 2005 seasons were LSU, USC, and Texas.

ETA that Oklahoma and Ohio State were the 2000 and 2002 champions.

Would you rather be paid 40k a year cash or 20k a year cash and 30k in stocks which can't be sold for 5 years and you must give 3 months notice before selling.

The stocks are not liquid and mass selling harms the value further diminishing the benefit. You think the employee will be happy getting only 20k in cash for their bills? Furthermore you will be diluting the stock on each dispersal which decreases value further.

CEOs already have lots of capital and prefer stocks to cash because it's taxed less. Plus already being rich means they can borrow against their assets to avoid most taxes.

Think about this. You have 100k in assets and just it as collateral to borrow 50k. Eventually you need to repay the loan when the term is over right? Sure but you can pay that loan by borrowing against the assets appreciation and the additional assets you acquired (stocks/property/etc). You can continue you this as you accumulate more wealth. Now 100k on assets likely won't take work, but when you are talking 100s of thousands then you can start to see why our tax system can be worked over so well.

Capital gains taxes only come into play when you sell an asset that has appreciated. Borrowing against that asset to make money does not invoke capital gains.

The other thing you need to keep in mind is that profit sharing can be great at company that is doing well but it's horrible when it's not. My company used to compensate everyone partially based on hitting numbers with a effective profit sharing. The problem was that company wasn't able to hit numbers for a few years which meant everyone were being underpaid vs the general market. Eventually they switched the system to have the expected bonus compensation added directly to lower level employees pay checks and only upper level people had their compensation split because lower level employees have no power in the company hitting numbers. This made all the lower level employees happy because it gave them a substantial pay increase vs having a roller coaster pay based on how the company did.

As an FYI, the company still gives performance bonuses for lower level employees. The difference is that higher level employees have their bonus more based on company performance instead of individual (it's a ratio that moves based on level of pay).

“Welcome to A Critical Analysis of Who's the Boss?

I am Professor Peter Sheffield, and I’d like to begin with a simple question: Who was the boss?”

Its not fixed, or the blue line would be horizontal across

Units. The legend tells you which units per line

Thank god someone's finally taking the actual purpose of this subreddit seriously. Wish I had 10 upvotes.

I just saw a short that Phoebe slept with one of Monica's exes an hour after they broke up

I am confused because you literally mentioned that companies should limit CEOs compensation based on the lowest paying wage. I am mentioning that would not have the intended effect of reducing compensation and potentially create incentive to reduce low wage employees by outsource when possible making what your are suggesting pointless.

You can't increase pay for low wage employees unless you increase the minimum wage. That is what increases pay to ensure a livable wage not trying some round about way to limit ceo compensation.

You would be surprised to know that not all companies have enough money to keep all their employees and us why we are seeing layoffs. The problem you don't seem to understand is liquidity.

What if they spared the bird and took the eggs?

For Rachael, it’s not Josh. It’s Joshoooah. Also what about the girl who was moving in that both Ross and Joey dated at the same time?

This is a /r/nextfuckinglevel shitpost

It’s odd how often “Friends” is on at the gym

Yes, you right about V8. They also do tend to have greater displacement than engines with fewer cylinders.

I can't say I value the engine note that much. Certainly not enough to outweigh a difference in efficiency, power, or price. I'd be perfectly happy with something like a Subaru boxer engine.

And Joey dating Ursula

Ross and Joey dated Charley. There should be a connection there

I'm curious how its defined in the off years. Going by straight BCS to CFP, the Average probably wouldn't have gone west of Louisiana.

Which championship decider did you use?

Rachel and Monica made out to get the apartment back.

Thank you! I don't shop at Costco an knew I was missing something obvious but couldn't get my head around it

The lines didn't have to cross :(

Phoebe and Chandler briefly "date" when she is trying to get him to admit he loves Monica, and he is playing along with it for lolz

It's a fixed price per pound with a max price of $5. Hence you get a pair of piecewise linear functions.

Ross and Monica made out but never dated

I don't understand the Y-axis either. It first I thought it was number of chickens, but that didn't really make sense. Logically it's USD but then the graph doesn't make sense. Unless the price is fixed and not per pound but if that's the case... What's the Y-axis? So I think it must be the number of chickens a nd get stuck in my loop all over again.
