    Just because it looks better to shareholders now doesn’t make it a good business decision. I swear the majority of CEO types don’t give a damn if the company goes under in a few years because they either:

    1. Have a golden parachute in place by sucking up to the Board.

    2. Will move on to another CEO position at another company before it folds. Bonus points if they golden parachute on the way out.

      It’s a good decision for the CEO though. That’s part of the problem, they’re not beholden to the business. They’ll just bugger off and go elsewhere.
