      How in the fuck does someone even spend that much a month?! Even in some crazy scenario where me and my wife eat out every single night I can only get to like $2300 monthly for restaurants. Throw another $5k (high) for mortgage, grocery, bills, etc doesn’t put me anywhere close. Hell, if you stayed at a hotel for 30 nights at even $200 a night that’s only $6k. Lots of hookers and drugs?

        I did a little digging - here’s something reported to the court:

        “His July spending included $7,900 on housekeeping, $15,184 in prenuptial payments to his wife, $6,302 in maintenance and taxes for his vacation lake house, and $6,338 on meals and entertainment, according to court papers.”

        Dude needs to get YNAB… or just cut back on the avocado toast.

          The lake house and lavish entertainment budget need to be given to the victims of his despicable conduct tho.

            Yup, and once those are sold he can keep giving the $6K monthly payments going to them. Sounds like he needs a $200 vacuum cleaner too, then he’s got another $7k to send the victims.

            Edit: flipped the numbers.

        You’re not thinking big enough.

        • Fuck eating out, hire a private chef.
        • 5k mortgage? Rich people have multiple houses at that price or more.
        • $200/night for a hotel, try 1200.

        I’m not saying it’s wise or prudent, but it’s definitely possible to get there if you are behaving like a rich person.

        This guy’s veins are at 1,000 PSI from all the cocaine he’s snorting, that’s one large expense you don’t have.

        He’s trying to either get and hide or waste as much of his money as possible so that other people can’t have it. He’s already tried a ton of shady shit in the bankruptcy hearing (including somehow getting a massive bill from one of his father’s shell companies), so it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s pulling shit like that.

        $5k a month right now is like a $900,000 house, which is a lot for the vast majority of people, but very low for rich people.
