yeah the title is misleading. The "food stamps" part was when his family first immigrated from the Ukraine. So it was when he was a child and I don't know how long that lasted. But looks to me that his post-school adult years were just fine in terms of finance. Sure he gained and list millions but in the end was still doing better than most.
