Twenty one men each earning €83,846,15 a week

Irish CEOs made a lot of money last year. The average pay packet rose by 31 per cent to €4.36 million for the top 21 earners.

Kerry Group CEO Edmond Scanlon earned €6.04 million, Tony Smurfit brought home €12.71 million, Flutter’s Peter Jackson pocketed €18.92 million, more nags must have lost than won; Albert Manifold, who is leaving CRH, came home with €11.62 million; Bank of Ireland’s Myles O’Grady checked out with €1.37 million;  Michael Stanley of Carin Homes certainly had a roof over his head, earning €2.28 million.

And all 21 are men.

The average weekly pay pack works out at €83,846,15.

Is it any wonder a litre of milk costs upwards of €1.25.
