The 'ludicrous' amounts of money that I was referencing was a possibility to frame your perspective, not a 'they get this every weekend' kind of situation. If that guy is charging $80 (which he is) per card run and he carries 10 people then that is $800 in the equivalent to one work week pretax. That's the same as making $41,600 annually which is the same as someone in the lower middle class. I figured the $83k from the fact that he's making $40 in one hour on average which is the same as $83k annually. Not that ludicrous, especially since I didnt say they were making that much money off of trials annually.
