Forbes just released the list of the wealthiest 25 CEOs, and their earning numbers are astronomic­al. 
The amount of money that the country's top ten wealthiest CEOs make in one year is enough to pay the salary of 18,330 'average' Americans.

The average salary in the U.S. was $33,000 in 2008- and though that is the most recent data, it does not even account for the brunt of the recession.

The top spot is held by John Hammergren­, 52, the CEO of pharmaceut­ical company McKesson who earned a salary of $131.2mill­ion and a net total income, which includes bonuses and profits from stock earnings, of $1.2billio­n.
