Agree in the respect of home security and any kind of corporate mandated security. If you are rich and/or live in a rich neighbourhood, you’ll need all the protection you can get to deter burglars. Also, corporations in particularly egregious industries like health insurance probably deal with threats on a regular basis.
Disagree because I think a big part of why corporate execs aren’t usually targeted is that they keep a relatively low profile outside of their jobs and aren’t typically public facing unlike more household names like Taylor Swift, Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Nicolas Cage, Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis, Joe Biden, etc. There are probably a lot of senior managers, big corporate execs and millionaires hiding in plain sight.
I’m sure a lot of people from Florida know who their governor is (Ron DeSantis) but not who the CEO of Carnival Corp & plc is (Micky Arison.) Only people who are really invested in that industry in some way would know, which is why figures like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are rare exceptions.
Even the level of security that current and former Presidents of the United States get are not infallible. Donald Trump was almost assassinated twice in this year’s campaign alone.
I think you are making good points here. I don’t think most corporate execs have that kind of detail, I agree that it’s likely more public-facing or in industries like healthcare, insurance, banking, real estate, law - any industry that can directly ruin people’s lives. To that point, if this company never had security details for their CEO, I am also surprised this hasn’t happened sooner.
I’m inclined to agree and disagree.
