However, Dan Price the CEO of Gravity Payments company slashed his own $1.1 million CEO salary so that everyone at his company would earn a minimum of $70,000 a year. He made the change after learning one of his employees was working full-time but couldn't afford rent. Do you wish many CEO are more compassionate to the workers like Mr. Dan Price?

Critics called him naive and said that his company would go out of business.They were all wrong. Since the change, Gravity's revenue has tripled. Its customer base doubled and more than 70% of employees paid off their debt. Many bought homes for the first time and were finally able to save and invest money. Employee turnover dropped by half. Do you believe this is a true example of "It is more blessed to give than to receive"? (In this photo, he looks like Jesus to me.)

The company became a Harvard Business School case study on how paying workers fairly can actually strengthen a business. Dan Price didn't do it for praise. He did it because someone on his team was struggling and he had the power to change that. This is what it means to really make a difference in someone's life. Do you think CEOs like Dan Price are a rare breed since most of them are ruthless and greedy?
