Picture below : Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg runs with bodyguards in Germany in 2016.

Facebook paid its CEO an additional $13 million for his personal security and travel costs in 2018, according to a proxy filing on Friday. That included a new $10 million pre-tax allowance for additional security costs such as security guards, equipment, services and residential improvements.

"He is synonymous with Facebook and, as a result, negative sentiment regarding our company is directly associated with, and often transferred to, Mr. Zuckerberg," said the filing.

Like many wealthy CEOs, Zuckerberg receives an official salary of $1 a year. He also did not receive bonuses or stock awards in 2018. However, Zuckerberg's total compensation jumped from $9.1 million in 2017 to $22.6 million in 2018 in order to cover the increase in security costs for the high-profile CEO.

The increase is partially the result of specific threats against Zuckerberg and Facebook's (FB) high visibility, according to the company.

Facebook pays for Zuckerberg and his family's personal security at his homes and when he travels. Approximately $2.6 million of Zuckerberg's compensation package in 2018 was for private aircraft travel, which the company said was part of the security program.

The company is entering the second year of a seemingly non-stop series of scandals. It has been under fire for everything from personal privacy issues following revelations that data-firm Cambridge Analytica collected information on 87 million Facebook users, to enabling the spread of white supremacy and hate speech on the platform. Those events have drawn a large amount of exposure for the company and its 34-year-old co-founder.

"Mr. Zuckerberg is one of the most-recognized executives in the world, in large part as a result of the size of our user base and our continued exposure to global media, legislative, and regulatory attention," said the filing.

The filing said Facebook also increased the amount of money it put towards COO Sheryl Sandberg's personal security by $1.1 million.
Zuckerberg is one of the richest people in the world and is worth just over $70 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaire's index.

Mark was almost gone last year. He would have been replaced as CEO of Facebook.

It's obvious he's got some friends in high places and even his call to appear before the Congress and Senate wasn't like an attack on what happened under his watch but looks more like a call to explain.

His friends saved him, you can't mess with people's security and privacy especially the Americans and not get hit.

Some people live to suffer while some live to prosper.
Each person with his own grace, luck and destiny in life.

Some came and left in penury;
Some came in penury and left in wealth;
Some came in wealth and left in penury;
Some came in wealth and left in wealth.

Life was a mystery, is a mystery and will ever be a mystery.

Hypocrites will say vanity upon vanity

It's amazing how easy it is to make money in this digital age. From zero dollars to over 70billion dollars in less than 15yrs? That's phenomenal.

Tech has truly made life much easier for the forward thinking minds.

See me coming in grand style.

They have started shifting the post.

Mark, if you need a female security guard, holla at me so I can link you up with the BEST in the game

Only?

If he has it he should flaunt it.
What I’m wondering here is how much a dollar is split into twelve places.
See the swag-less looking dude, sef.
One will never imagine he controls such wealth and power.
I hope one local champion who is afraid to show himself won’t start having ideas.
We all know imitation is the easiest form of flattery.

Aw much will it cost to protect him 4rm village people

It's always been there. Zuckerberg came to Nigeria in 2016 and I had read about the money that Facebook spends on his security even before he came to Nigeria. They only increased the level of security around him because of the threats, but Facebook has been paying for his bodyguards since as far back as 2011.

This is a 2016 article.
