Keep in mind, however, that in 2011 Cook &#8220;was awarded one of the highest compensation packages&#8221; &#8212; he got a whopping $376.2 million in stock that resulted in an overall pay package of $378 million. His total compensation for 2012, meanwhile, was only a &#8220;paltry&#8221; $4.2 million. That&#8217;s barely enough to live off of!<\/p>\n<p>All kidding aside, Cook&#8217;s Apple stock is reportedly worth $510 million, so despite no stock award in 2012, I&#8217;m guessing he&#8217;ll use huge wads of cash to wipe away his tears. It&#8217;s been an interesting year for the semi-new CEO, who saw some ups (the iPhone 5, the iPad Mini, more retina display MacBook Pros), and some downs (Apple Maps). We&#8217;ll see what 2013 brings for Cook&#8211;he&#8217;s already announced plans to shift some Apple production to the United States, which will bring some jobs stateside.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Average Joe would rage over getting a 99% pay cut from his or her employer, but if you&#8217;re Apple CEO Tim Cook, it&#8217;s not so bad.
