Durov's arrest has received backlash from free-speech absolutists like Elon Musk — although his track record for allowing speech on X has also come into question. AdvertisementMusk, who has been criticized for the lack of content moderation on his platform X, defended Durov and painted the Telegram CEO's arrest as a broader global threat around free speech.

Less discussed, however, is a parallel crisis in corporate America: a wave of aging business leaders who refuse to step aside. The average retirement age is similarly increasing: to 62 in 2024 from 57 in 1991. Using public data from 1992 to 2018, they assessed the relationship between a CEO's age and their "managerial ability," as measured by how they turned company resources into revenue and profit. "A 10% increase in CEO age is associated with a 1.9% decrease in managerial ability," they wrote. And older workers, both above and below the traditional retirement age, already face unwarranted discrimination in the workplace.

A judge on Friday questioned the restoration of Elon Musk's multibillion-dollar Tesla pay package. Tesla's lawyers argue a shareholder vote approving the pay should be sufficient to reinstate it. The judge, who previously invalidated the pay package, said the issue "will not end here and now." AdvertisementThe Delaware judge who previously threw out Elon Musk's $55 billion Tesla pay package has cast new doubts on whether the CEO's massive benefits package should be reinstated despite approval from the company's shareholders. Tesla lawyers on Friday argued the pay should be reinstated following a June shareholder vote approving it.

☆ A millionaire early retiree earning $380,000 a year in passive income went back to work—but only lasted 4 months
▼ + stars: | 2024-08-02 | by ( Ryan Ermey | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Last year, after selling a chunk of his stock and bond portfolio to purchase a house in cash, Sam Dogen found himself with too little passive income to support his family's budget. It turned out, this particular gig didn't align with his personal or financial priorities at this point in his life. By last year, his passive income portfolio, which includes stocks, bonds and real estate investments, among others, was bringing in about $380,000 a year. "That shored up a huge hole in my passive income," Dogen says. That won't produce passive income unless Dogen reinvests it, but it gave him the cash cushion to paper over some short-term cracks in his finances.

Montaque cofounded Group Black in 2021 with the goal of directing $500 million in advertising money to Black-owned media in its first 18 months. With the pledge, Group Black laid out a plan to steer money to Black media owners and acquire media companies. Bough, Group Black's chief strategy officer, was a former Mondelēz and PepsiCo marketer who presented the CNBC reality show "Cleveland Hustles." Various outlets reported that Group Black mounted bids for media companies including the Sports Illustrated publisher Arena Group, the Paramount-owned BET, Vice Media, and Vox Media. Seven former employees described Montaque as an energetic leader but said he was ultimately ineffective in executing Group Black's mission.

☆ Small Landlords Are Using New Tech Tools to Raise Tenants Rents

The past few years have solidified single-family rental homes as genuine moneymaking enterprises, not just ho-hum nest eggs. Related storiesWhen everyone was scrambling for their piece of the suburbs during the pandemic, mom-and-pop landlords pounced, using these newfound tools to collect more cash. The company, which estimates only one-fourth of single-family-rental landlords use professional management services, now manages more than 28,000 rentals on behalf of small landlords. As the Wall Street ethos trickles down to small rental owners, it'll be harder and harder to tell them apart. But the gap is narrowing as small rental owners capitalize on the innovations that the institutional class has already embraced.

Read previewA Delaware judge still wants to consider a $6-billion request in legal fees from lawyers who shot down Elon Musk's multibillion-dollar pay package at Tesla regardless of the recent shareholder vote, court documents show. In January, Chancellor Kathleen McCormick of the Delaware Chancery Court ruled against Elon Musk's pay package that would've awarded the Tesla CEO more than $55 billion in stock at the time. With the outcome, lawyers representing Richard Tornetta, the Tesla shareholder who objected to the compensation plan, argued that they provided a valuable service in getting Musk's package rescinded. But Musk received some good news in June after shareholders voted to re-approve the CEO's pay package and maintain the current board structure with Kimbal and James Murdoch. Chancellor McCormick will have to decide on the fate of the package and whether the plaintiff's attorneys do deserve about $6 billion in legal fees.
