Martine Rothblatt, a 59 year old entrepreneur and space lawyer, is the highest paid female executive in America. She made $38 million last year as the CEO of United Therapeutics (UTHR); a $6 billion biotech firm she founded to find a treatment for pulmonary hypertension after her daughter was diagnosed with the disease.
Rothblatt's compensation is based largely on stock performance. Last year, her company received FDA approval for a medicine they had been working on for 10 years. The stock more than doubled and Rothblatt's compensation rose by a multiple of four. “I think this [pay structure] is in the best interest of the shareholders,” she says. “There’s a mantra about corporate governance about pay-for-performance so I said ‘okay I’ll take the risk that 100% of my bonus compensation will be based upon stock market performance.’”
Last year, just $992,678 of Rothblatt's total compensation was from her base salary. She earned another $36,097,326 in option awards and $1,102,907 in non-equity incentive plan compensation. In 2012, Rothblatt made $8 million in total compensation.

yeah. To be a womanly business success you have to first be a man.
Some people call him Maurice.
99 dead baboons, sitting in my living room
This was Herm, now Hermiona, and there’s Big Ed in my recliner!
Edwina?
That's just the pompatus of love.
Ha... guess what... he is still a man...
Just dickless now
He still is a man.
He can cut off his wiener and put on a dress but he’ll never be a woman.
This reminds me of something criminology professor Mike Adams wrote as a response to statements by some of his students-
Do you believe a man can become a woman by having his p*nis removed?
If you say ‘yes,’ could having his p*nis surgically attached to his forehead allow him to become a unicorn?
If not, why not?
Another example ...

"Conway is notable for a number of pioneering achievements, including the Mead & Conway revolution in VLSI design, which incubated an emerging electronic design automation industry. She worked at IBM in the 1960s [!!] and is credited with the invention of generalised dynamic instruction handling, a key advance used in out-of-order execution, used by most modern computer processors to improve performance."
At some point in the early 1990s....SAIC had an extremely high finance officer for the company, who went on four weeks of vacation. He (rather she) appears after the four weeks back at the company in a full skirt, and there’s a major meeting with the CEO that morning. By noon, the CEO had terminated the individual. Naturally, it goes to court. The CEO said fine...offered up five years of pay....and that was the end of the episode. The CEO just wasn’t going to deal with that kind of stuff. I doubt if the guy/gal ever got another company job after that.
I’m not dumb, but I can’t understand why she walked like a woman and talked like a man.
Still a man, just mutilated.
Who is the highest paid really female CEO?
She looka like a man.
Gender reassignment; hog wash. Rothblatt is a castrated, hormone injected, silicone implanted freek. It is an eunuch who belongs in a carnival side show.
Genetically, it seems quite likely this person still has XY chromosomes, despite “sex reassignment surgery.”
I’m probably a horrible, intolerant person for pointing this out.
To conceive and create that processor ... amazing.
“In the clip where’s she’s talking to that old guy in the ponytail, she looks and sounds quite feminine.”
I had to laugh when I saw your comment. I had the sound down low when I watched and was waiting for the reporter to interview the woman CEO, but she kept talking to the old guy with the ponytail, until I realized it was the old guy that was supposed to be the woman.
