bullet for you?
Maybe just be a better person and forget the extra security?
But the shareholders are looking for someone ruthless. Being nice is much less profitable than being an asshole.
Doesn’t help when people are calling for the murder of all CEOs, no matter how they behave.
Or just stop murdering people en masse…?
That’s why Luigi was arrested, so he wouldn’t murder anyone else. Society can’t let crazies like that roam free.
So, for the actual answer to how you get private security: you hire a company like constellis (formerly blackwater, or Iraq war crime fame) or the honest to God pinkertons, who are actually still around.
You pay them unholy amounts of money and get some burly people to follow you around, with skills proportional to how much you’re paying them. If it gets to the six figure a month range, they also get more war-crime-y because you’re going for the highly qualified special forces folks who miss the fun of combat and murder.
If you try to pay what feels like a reasonable sum for private security you’re getting a cop working a second job who is definitely not taking a bullet for you, and probably not doing anything more to keep you alive than what’s coincidental to keeping themselves alive.The company I work for does business in countries where kidnapping foreign business people is a common and lucrative way to make money (it’s effectively IT consulting, we’re not evil beyond the baseline capitalist level). We hire security people for preposterous sums and basically get former special forces who drive a car, make sure the person who showed up to the meeting is actually who they should be, orders delivery food, and tells you not to do stupid things. They try to keep you from getting kidnapped in boring ways, and if you do get kidnapped they coordinate the ransom exchange. (That I know of the most that’s ever happened was someone made the phone call to verify that the car they were about to get into at the airport was the pickup, and were told that it was not, abandon your bag if they’ve already loaded it and immediately go back into the airport and wait for the guard who showed up a minute later and handled the police interaction)
In general just try to avoid being in a position where you feel like you need to have hired a hero.
The best solution to solving those uneasies would be to make your business less evil and exploitive. The fastest has already been covered.
I can’t help but wonder if OP is the CEO of Kaiser Permanente or something… 🤔
“Let’s just say, for argument’s sake, that I may do things for money that are bad enough that other people want to kill me… how much money would I need to pay someone to not feel that way?”
If they gave me ten million USD (or assets of equivalent value) no strings attached I would stop feeling murderous when I think about that particular exec or company.
The best security for a healthcare exec is making sure claims get approved at your company. All of them.

Class solidarity comes in all shapes and sizes 🥲
Private personal security firms exist, and are often used by celebrities, CEOs, and the like. Generally speaking, what you get with those services is just an armed dude who will follow you around and make sure that people keep a safe distance from you. He’ll get between you and anybody who may be approaching too aggressively, and will mostly just serve as a physical barrier, more than anything.
They will not take a bullet for you, though. While there’s an inherent risk of being attacked as part of the job, they’re not going to “get down Mr President” you. While they will do what they can to protect you, they’re not going to intentionally sacrifice themselves for you.
Hopefully you would simply choose to change the policies to make it where you weren’t somebody that the general public wished were dead.
Otherwise… Try craigslist? I don’t know. If you’re not willing to try to change the system for the better it’s probably better off without you anyway.
Otherwise… Try craigslist?
Yes. PLEASE hire your bodyguards through craigslist. I’m not even a CEO killer, but I feel we could ALL use the laughs from how hilariously trashy that would turn out.
If they didn’t choose option A then I’m not exactly looking to help them out here.
I wouldn’t be afraid at all. And man, I can’t wait until Luigi goes to prison, you all learn all of facts about him, and you guys can stop worshiping him. lol
You don’t hire security you buy your popularity. Lower executive pay. Raise worker pay. Remove restrictions on coverage approval. Not saying pay for everything, but don’t avoid paying when it’s covered.
Improve your status with employees and the public and you didn’t have to worry about getting shot in the street.
