Do you believe that the average CEO works harder or has more experience than the average worker?
Do you think they work 400 times harder, or have 400 times more experience?
In most cases, yes, they do work a lot harder than the average worker. Running a business is hard work and comes with a lot of stress and sacrifices. How many CEOs do you know personally? I’m sure if you asked a CEO where it’s like to run a company I’m sure you’ll find it harder than you think. Posts like these are mostly driven by the politics of envy and resentment. I can’t believe I’m being down voted for stating the truth.
