Ray isn't small but definitely useless. Looks like estrogen has skyrocketed.  I think he works out though. In his interviews you can clearly see he has an air of superiority over his contemporaries who now have health problems.

Is Food Noise a real thing though?

$3,500 a month. That's a little over $40K a year, basically less than what some school teachers make.

$5,000 a month is around $60K, entry-level technical job fresh out of college.

Can’t ignore inflation for 30 years though. Multiply by at least 2-2.5. $92-130K a year for an up and coming bodybuilder to inject drugs and work out in California back in the 90s isn’t exactly a tough job.

The Weider contracts weren't serious, mostly photos and showing up for Weider promotions. It averaged 2-4 days of real work.  Rest was gym and show prep.

Naturals shouldn't think Dillet's drug response was normal and this would happen to them too if they took drugs, it was clearly very abnormal.

Bodybuilders' real job has always been drug deals, PEDs but sometimes rec drugs. They also like to be fronted drugs and then they forget to pay their debts. Lots of different scams is common. I heard a story about a pro bb being forced to kneel at gunpoint in the locker room at the gym and him crying. Sometimes you rip off the wrong person.

This is why Arnold got money from old schmoes
He earned his corn not unlike modern bodybuilders doing seedy Gay for pay..infact one could say Arnold paved the way for the modern bi sexual bodybuilding industry
Arnold certainly is an icon amongst bodybuilders  :D

This is probably 1992, 34 years ago.

$5K then is like almost 12K now.
