Google's fatcat boss was told he “lives in a different world” today after admitting he has no idea how much he gets paid.
Multi-millionaire Matt Brittin, president of Google Europe, Middle East and Africa, was unable to tell MPs the size of his own salary.
“It's a salary, errr, I don't have the figure,” the stammering Google chief said.
“I'll provide the figure privately if it is relevant for the committee to understand my salary.”

People used to say this about yachts - if you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it.
Obviously we are in a new gilded age, in which the rich are so wealthy the numbers no longer have any meaning.
And by "we" I mean "them". "We" don't even exist in the world "they" are creating.
