    The mind boggles, truly... that's as much as the first 5 days, right?



    So another side analysis: assuming everything from $850,000 onwards is surplus to requirements, that leaves Rich with $400,000. Subtract 15% for misc transaction costs (kickstarter, amazon, sales taxes), that's still $340,000. Let's say half of that will be used to cover the costs of the rewards for that final $400,000, Rich gets somewhere in the neighbourhood of $170,000.

    At 30% tax that leaves around $120,000 in income for Rich from this drive, above and beyond everything else getting produced.

    Now: anyone around here know yacht prices? after all this stuff is sorted, I hope he takes a very long holiday to enjoy himself for once!
