Mitt Romney may have been "unemployed" the past two years, but he was still able to make $21.7 million in income for 2010 and another $20.9 million in 2011. That stacks up pretty well against the biggest names on Wall Street, beating out the bosses of BofA and Goldman Sachs, for instance.

To be fair, these figures only represent what the executives are actually paid. Romney makes his money from investments, and one can be sure that Wall Street executives are pulling in a healthy income from investments on the side, not just taking multi-million dollar salaries.

(Though the banking world hasn't exactly been stuffing dividend payments in their executives pockets. Citigroup recently gave its board directors a whole 2.5 shares each for their 2011 dividends.)

Here is the pay of some of the investment world's tycoons whose pay has been disclosed for comparison to the presidential candidate.
