Back when I entered Caltech, someone mentioned what Feynman's salary was. (Feynman was a prof at Caltech.) I stupidly said I thought his salary was outrageously high. I was pointedly told that Feynman was worth far more than his salary simply to have his name listed as being on the staff (bringing interest, credibility, and donations to Caltech).

And, of course, Feynman being Feynman he did infinitely more than just have his name on the roster. Only his tragic demise was able to stop him.

Any company would be out of their freakin' minds to pass up any opportunity to hire Feynman.

I'd "interview" him for the opportunity to spend an hour with him, not that there's any chance in hell I'd say "no hire".

As for his position and job at the company, who cares. Whatever he wants.
