Soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is set to earn $131.5 million with the Italian club Juventus over the next four years. It is safe to assume that most of the people who work for Italian automaker Fiat Chrysler will make significantly less money over the same period of time.
In addition, thousands of Fiat Chrysler employees have taken part in state-sponsored temporary layoff plans that started years ago and are expected to run through at least 2022, which happens to be when Ronaldo’s contract with Juventus ends.
Fiat Chrysler and Juventus are both partially owned by Exor, the investment holding company of Italy’s Agnelli family.
