Man, those quarters really add up. Post Sith Lord Rupert Murdoch received $19 million bonus last year, bringing his salary to $23.6 million. Murdoch's net worth is estimated by Forbes as $7.8 billion, which probably means he spent his bonus on hats, or perhaps nick-knacks for the kitchen. Maybe cat food.

By the way, his son, the prodigal Lachlan Murdoch, who just quit his position at the Post, made $7.8 million last year, and he'll get almost $7 million more when he officially leaves his office at the end of the month. Which is the type of thing that just puts everybody reading this in the best mood.
