Why is it masculine?

Stipendi is masculine because it derives from the Latin "stipendium" (neuter), but Italian reassigned it to the masculine gender, likely influenced by the pattern of other -io nouns in Italian being predominantly masculine (like "premio," "servizio"). The original Latin neuter ending was replaced by the productive Italian masculine -io suffix.
