I'm also very curious about all of this. That said, it's probably pretty cheap to live in the wilderness in Chile. I bet building his roundhose cost nothing compared to what it would take to buy a house in the US.
- tanzam75 13y agoThe costs of a typical suburban house in the US can be broken down as: 50% land, 25% materials, 25% labor. By living in the wilderness rather than in a developed area, the 50% cost of land gets cut substantially. By using Chilean workers, the 25% cost of labor is also substantially reduced. Remember that Chile's GDP per capita -- while high for South America -- is only 2.5x that of China.
- jonah 13y agoEven if land, construction, and labor costs are considerably less, it's still something. Additionally, he's involved in quite a few hobbies which can be expensive. I'm not saying he has (or needs) tens of millions of dollars but has to have some.
