Ask HN: When a CEO Faces Complete Disgrace, How Do They Stay Afloat?
My question is in the context of people like Elizabeth Holmes, who was charged by the SEC and currently being investigated by the FBI. She obviously cannot work any longer, and I suppose she was not reckless in her spending, so in the worst case scenario, she may have savings? But between lawyers fees, and falling out with many people, do CEOs like this go live with their parents, friends?<p>I know people do get back on their feet though, but it&#x27;s the in-between period, the logistics that puzzles me. Is there a secret club that bails high flyers out?
