I find it very interesting that I am talking about the poor TIMING of the Boeing CEOs home purchase, and some people are arguing ITS NOT THAT EXPENSIVE...... completely missing the point.
Think back to the recent contract negotiations at all the airlines. Imagine if during the lead up to a strike vote, the CEO had bought a house commensurate with their income level.
The unions would run all kinds of ads exploiting the price of the house to garner support from the both the general public and the rank and file union voters.
But some people are incapable of understanding that.
So again, I wish Boeing the best of luck and hope that the CEO moving back to the Seattle area helps them survive. Just wish he had been smarter about the timing considering the contract negotiations.

If your airline’s CEO got fired in the middle of contract negotiations, and an outsider who lived elsewhere bought a relatively modest house in a decent part of town, I doubt anyone would lose their minds. That’s expected.
It seems like you are looking for something to be outraged over. Truly.

I think you are the one missing the point that he’s new. Where is he supposed to live?
