Tis the season to embrace your financial ruin.

It's no revelation that many of our country's top tech executives take home more money on an annual (daily?) basis than most of us will ever see in our lifetimes, but the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) just introduced a handy Web tool that details just how much money we're talking about.

The Executive Compensation Reader is part of new rules requiring more transparency and clarity when it comes to disclosing executive pay. The database currently has info on 500 large companies that have filed proxy statements with the SEC.

A quick perusal of the tech companies we regularly cover here at PC Magazine basically makes me want to kill myself. Uh, I mean, revel in the glory of capitalism.

Brian L. Roberts, Comcast's board chairman and CEO, for example, takes home a $2.5 yearly million salary--but with bonuses, stock awards and options, and perks, that number jumps to approximately $26 million annually.

AT&T chairman and CEO Ed Whitacre will also likely be able to fill his loved ones' stockings with iPhones, HDTVs and basically any other gadget you can think of, thanks to an annual package of approximately $60.7 million.

(Sigh)

Carl E. Vogel, EchoStar's president, vice chairman and director, meanwhile, is practically destitute, with his paltry $2.8 million compensation package.

But what about Google?

Chairman and CEO Eric Schmidt, as well as the company's founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, are all in the one-dollar-salary club. The SEC documents indicate that Larry is pulling in half a million, while Larry gets $38K, and Sergey takes home $1,724, but something tells me they're not hurting for cash.

A few more depressing stats:
