All who complain about Tom's wages, it sounds like jealousy. What
does the CEO of Halliburton or Enron make? I BET it's more than
$188K.

For one thing, The $188K is only part of it. He also gets a pile from
other affiliated EAA foundations etc. Don't forget the retirement,
health and other benefits plus a huge expense account

You can't really believe that running the EAA is anywhere near the
responsibility of the CEO of Haliburton or Enron do you? Start looking
at much smaller companies which have simular cash flows and simular
numbers of employees. Even there, Tom has less responsibility because
his decisions involve much less risk. A bad CEO decision can bankrupt
a company. A bad decision by Tom is at worst a setback and not the end
of the EAA because the income is almost guarenteed to continue. It's
not a real competitive business that has to take risks to get income.
I think you will find Tom is way overpaid

The temporary influx of volenteers doesn't count for much because those
volenteers are managed by other volenteers and by EAA staff that is
already on the payroll anyway. Tom doesn't handle much of that
personally
