Well, not exactly, but it does seem to show that he MAKE THAT SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS We know some things now that we didn’t know about the CEO/Secretary of Visit Anaheim. We know that he makes at least $433K a year, possibly closer to half a million by now, advertising for Disneyland and the surrounding hotels, and getting folks to hold conventions at our Convention Center.
