How does one spend that much money? A person can't. But should he work for free to assuage your feelings about his salary? My guess is he and his wife are setting up generational wealth for their kids. I don't see any fault with his salary, he can help family and set his kids up for life, while hopefully teaching his kids how to intelligently share their wealth with the rest of society (be charitable, but don't be a sucker).
