Some were impressed, pointing out his decades of experience, influence, and dedication to journalism. Others, however, couldn’t help but wonder… why so much?

“Journalism in the Arab world is tough!”

Adeeb didn’t just drop his paycheck—he also made a bold statement about the tough realities of journalism in the Arab world. According to him, being a journalist in this region is one of the hardest jobs out there.

And while some agree that his job is demanding, others are asking: Does the stress justify the paycheck?

Even Amr Adeeb feels the egg price hike?

In a moment that really got people talking, Adeeb mentioned Egypt’s rising egg prices—a hot topic for many Egyptians struggling with inflation. He even said that he personally feels the impact of these price hikes.

But with millions rolling into his bank account every year, some weren’t convinced. One user joked, “How many eggs is EGP 125 million buying?”

Hard work or overpaid? The internet can’t decide

The reactions to Adeeb’s salary reveal were all over the place. Some defended him, arguing that he’s worked hard for years and deserves every penny.

Others questioned why a journalist should be earning that much when many Egyptians are struggling financially.

So, what do you think? Is EGP 125 million a fair price for his work, or is it way too much?
