I don't know what all the griping is about. Someone, somehow has to pay off the wine cellar.
Take Eugene Isenberg, the 78-year-old chief executive of Nabors Industries Ltd. If Mr. Isenberg died tomorrow, Nabors would owe his estate a "severance" payment of at least $263.6 million, company filings show. That's more than the first-quarter earnings at the Houston oil-service company.
...The CEO of Shaw Group Inc. is in line to be paid $17 million for not competing with the engineering and construction company after he dies.
Lockheed Martin Corp.'s top officer didn't even need to die to get a death benefit; Lockheed paid out the sum, about $1 million, in March while he was still very much alive.
