Wasn't he fired from paypal for incompetence and got millions basically "coz he was there early and got the stock" ?


Yes, he was definitely fired after a short stint. Stories on why don't totally line up for me, but incompetence is one of the explanations, and I feel like it's pretty hard to get fired from a CEO spot that quickly.
