Where do you draw the line? How much is "too much" profit? Would it be ok if he made $50k per book instead of $100k? It's not like the guy's making billions. H

It's not like the guy's making billions. He's working his ass off and producing extremely valuable content to make an income that is maybe comparable to a senior google engineer. Given all the blatant fraud and theft going in the world these days at a million times the scale, I can't imagine why you'd choose to pick on someone trying to sell a good product for as much as people are willing to pay for it.
Being able to make a comfortable living by doing something like self publishing tech books is actually a huge coup for the little guy, not a form of greedy exploitation. It makes me happy that so many people are willing to support such an endeavor.
