Not only that, but you're paying for them to move into your neighborhood and rob/assault you and your family.

Truly sickening

LMAO ^^ True, true...

Yep....there is a shitload of "under the table" money in the bodybuilding industry....that's how most of this shit works to begin with.  The diets are the biggest joke....I mean, if you're using clen, T3, and growth hormone, you can practically eat cookie dough and still get ripped.  The money for those plans are more of a "membership program" to suppliers of steroids and they get a cut of that as well all tax free.

I take home a lot less that these guys but I pay my taxes because there's no way for me to hide my income....but you can bet that they are claiming a lot less on their income than me and take advantage of it to get stuff like food stamps and government assistance

Wow thanks for the info Munzer

100K is not a lot of money, especially in New York City.

Making 100K sets you up for a 33% (Federal (25%) + State (8%)) tax rate.

So, Aaron was walking away with around 65K after taxes. The guy had a home to maintain, utility costs, a car and children. So, lets say he was taking home $5,400 a month or so. After you deduct the cost of rent alone (for a family his size, I presume anywhere around $2500-$3000/month), you are left with $2500-$3000. Throw in all the utility costs + the cost of food for the home, you easily have another $1500-$2000 gone. The guy is then left with a measly $500-$1000 a month, if he is lucky. Then, he had a car to maintain. Just in tolls, gas and car payments alone, all of his money would have been gone.

So, like I said, 100K goes nowhere in NYC.

"1"

You've put a lot of time into this. If I did not know better, I would call out jealousy. How much did you make last year?

What was Aaron providing Dave for the $100k/year?  (serious question)

Same here. I don't know much about Aaron beside pictures he posted while at the hospital.

Does he even lift?

He brought in advertisers mainly.....generally they'll pay from 7-15k a month.  Envizion Medical was Aaron's meal ticket though....they paid a shitload of money

In regards to these photoshopped pics, I'd like to quote the great German Gunter Schlierkamp addressing the disappointed crowd after placing 5th at the 2002 Olympia, "You made my day! Thank you very much!"

It all depends on your overheads. You listed a number of things that qualify as obligatory expenditures on a monthly basis but could be adjusted based on choice. He could've simply bought a condo in one of the less expensive boroughs, driven a cheaper but still-new car, and spent less money on trips and clothing. If 100k isn't enough - whether in NYC, London, or LA - you're living outside your means. Bodybuilders aren't business magnates. They're average guys with a lot of muscle and associated sponsorships. They need to live accordingly. A lot of people in America are having to cut back on everything from medication to food to water use to break even. I don't see why this guy should be paid more because he doesn't want to follow that trend.

You need to limit your dicktrap occupancy and focus on relativity.

No one care about your economic environment personal projections. 100k goes a long way in 95% of this great land we call 'Murica.

Question isn't about Aaron's affordability but instead what did he "do" to justify it.

Narrower vision than a gofer looking for a 29g needle 10feet underground.
