55k is a lot better than nothing.
I don't think it makes any indication of whether he's making a "killing" or not. The only thing that can indicate that is the $300 kicks, which are more likely to be his personal indulgence than reflective of everything.
The amount of money he makes isn't what's inspiring. What's inspiring is the fact that he had two choices - wait for something good to happen to him and blame others or take responsibility for things and make them happen by himself. Thats what's inspiring.

- lusr 15y ago"While it might frustrate some to learn that the man who hectors subway riders to buy a granola bar is making more money than many of those commuters" In my opinion, the article is implying this guy is making pretty good money but they've left out all the important details. As I said, I respect the guy for making a living and it's nice to put some numbers to what these guys earn (I've always wondered), I just take issue with what I see as a bit of embellishment and misrepresentation on this particular success story.
