Lord man, what kind of bills were these?
- arpa 6y agoCollege bills i would guess
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 6y agobut $20k is like, a year's tuition at a University. Did parent also rent a mansion to live in while attending?
- vikramkr 6y agoDepending on the university that might not cover a semester. Still, within 6 months of making money at that level, your post tax earnings are going to be enough for even the most expensive undergraduate programs
- jghn 6y agoIt also depends on when this was.
- geek_at 6y agoOr like a whole degree from bachelor to masters and a 15.000$ car (in Europe)
- jjcon 6y agoBut then afterwards he would barely make more than a barista
- vinay427 6y agoGood luck paying living expenses for years with only $5k in one of the many European countries that don't generally provide stipends for that. I'm a student in Switzerland where my university recommends more like $2,300 a month.
- JacobSuperslav 6y agoI know plenty of families living comfortably in Europe for <15k/year. Not Switzerland though.
- fortran77 6y agoIf he lived in California, he'd only be taking home 10K a month. Tuition, room and board at Stanford would take most of the rest.
- factotvm 6y agoYou’re off by about 20% on the take home.
- NikolaeVarius 6y ago"only" 10k a month
- whimsicalism 6y agoTuition, room and board at stanford isn't $120k
- Tempest1981 6y agoIt's around $80k, plus computer and travel https://financialaid.stanford.edu/undergrad/budget/ https://financialaid.stanford.edu/undergrad/budget/
- astrostl 6y agoIs there an implication that the bills appoached $20k/month? Whether he owed $1/month or $20k/month, 20k/month is only being asserted as at least equal to the amount of his unspecified bills.
- TechBro8615 6y agoThe profit was more like 10k because the hosts all convinced me each server could only handle 256 IP addresses. And I shut it down because the support requests became unmanageable, there was rampant fraud, chargeback rates were through the roof. I had more important things to do / opportunities to focus on.
