Like a lot of big charities, a good portion of the money donated will never reach the front line.

69% of it reaches its destination. Other charities have higher % if they don't pay those chuggers to stand in the street and annoy people...

You can buy a lot of sex workers for that!

Shame to see Oxfam getting dragged through the dirt at the moment. They do a lot of good stuff.

You realise that as a charity they may (or may not) be called directors, but, are actually trustees and as such aren't allowed to be paid for being in that position?

It's always helpful for politician's and journalists that have someone else to condemn. It takes the focus off what scumbags they are. Oxfam has over 5,000 employees and over 20,000 volunteers in their uk subsidiary alone. Shockingly some of those did some of those are cunts.

Executive officers are not trustees and directors. They are the people who run and organise the charity on a daily basis.

Do you really honestly think a charity with an annual income of over 400 million pounds can run purely with noone paid to manage it.

Being paid £125,000 for that role is a fraction of what they would get paid in commercial industry. And rightly so. But you are hardly going to let someone control that much of an organisation and pay them minimum wage are you.

Charities are all about making money for good causes. If someone is good at that and capable of getting that kind of money coming into the charity then they are worth paying. It's peanuts compared to the rest of the money flowing in and out and peanuts compared to what they could earn elsewhere! Some less deserving people earn that just for having a directorship in a company and some hold several directorships.

All in all it's about 8% of turnover (i.e. all the admin costs) which is pretty good. If you were a government department or FTSE 100 company and your admin costs were 8%, you'd be doing well.

The people whose lives are saved and made better on a daily basis aren't going to quibble about the bosses wage or any of the 8%.

How many government ministers or ex government ministers hold bullshit directorships and earn a fortune for fuck all?

Moaning about charity bosses earning £125,000 just sounds like not knowing how it works or sour grapes!

You'd be surprised at how many people don't contemplate things fully. I know one charity I was involved with. A community project where the manager was easily pulling 60-70 hours a week and there were complaints to the trustees that they were being paid £15,000 per year. Just above minimum wage at the time (based on them doing 40 hours a week, anything over they were doing for the love of the project)
