And did! (Next time think about throwing in a tutorial on beating The Man at his own game and some tales from the crypt to sweeten the deal.)
Not long after Mitt Romney dropped out of the presidential race in early 2008, a titan of New York finance, Julian H. Robertson, flew to Utah to deliver an eye-popping offer. He asked Mr. Romney to become chief executive of his hedge fund, Tiger Management, for an annual salary of about $30 million, plus investment profits, according to two people told of the discussions. For Mr. Romney, who had spent the previous decade in public life forgoing any paychecks, the position promised to catapult him back to the pinnacle of American business and into the ranks of the stratospherically rich. Several friends and relatives urged him to accept. “Let’s put it this way,” said Mr. Robertson. “He could have made a lot of money.” But Mr. Romney was uninterested.
Wonder what he will offer Obama when he loses? Everyone is always looking for that perfect contrarian!
Could buy a lot of lotto tickets with $30mil
You're doing it wrong JR. Instead of paying talented people lots of money to work for you, you should pay them less than minimum wage so they leave and make a lot of money for someone else.

I turned down a $7.50 an hour job PLUS store discount at Best Buy when I was in high school in order to run for class president, but you don't hear me bragging.

Would you rather

This must be the udderly perplexing final round interview question at Moodys that has cowed many a once proud applicant into submitting to a life of MBS rating.

It is true that Romney appears to have steered Bain away from any vice investments of any kind.
He specifically stated that he would not invest in companies involved in alcohol, cigs, guns or gambling.
More or less a pioneer social investing PE fund if you can string that phrase together.

Balls? How about a CEO with the balls to tell shareholders to shut up and let him run the company? Maximizing shareholder value hasn't worked out so well compared to the banks that focused more on…..running their businesses intelligently.
