retiring chairman appears to be reaping the benefits.Exxon is giving Lee Raymond one of the most generous retirement packages in history, nearly $400 million, including pension, stock options and other perks, such as a $1 million consulting deal, two years of home security, personal security, a car and driver, and use of a corporate jet for professional purposes.

And you certainly would never lack for these:
Yes, you pass the wallet biopsy check!
