What's not very common are $1.7 million houses or $18 million salaries.
Most relo packages top out at $50-100K in relocation expenses.
I could make $18 M last 20 years. I don't have any sympathy for the paycuts cuts these guys are taking, or the taxes they must pay. Yeah, they carry most of the tax burden, boo hoo. But it's because they get most of the money.
