The Economist looked at the quirkier side of CEO’s and business performance:

• According to one expert, a male CEO with two wives is ideal. He has to pay alimony which creates an incentive for him to work hard. However three wives is a negative sign because that many divorces suggest reckless behaviour.
• Single bosses have more volatile returns than married ones.
• Managers who have a greater ownership in the firms they run take fewer holidays.
