Mike Castro's Income - LOL!

Based on Jobe's estimate of 20-30 people per day paying $4-5 each, Katrina estimates Mike's gross income from his "toll road" at $5600 a month, eh? What about February? It's got fewer days than most months. I'm just wondering which month you're talking about for accounting purposes.

Also keep in mind those Green Tortise busses must bring in TONS of money to the Ranch, right? Let's do some quick math: Let's see...50-75 people per bus...(a-hem)...at $4 a head. Geez, that's $4 X 80 people (I rounded up the number for ease of calculations) = $320/day X 2 days (Sat & Sun) = $640 X 4.3 weeks (in a month) = exactly $4400 (using fuzzy math)...the exact figure I was THINKING! Damn! Mike's making $10,000 a MONTH!

But hold on. Mike forgot to give me my change last weekend from a 5-dollar bill. He probably earned interest on my dollar after I left. He's probably got GOBS of dollars earning interest in Swiss Bank accounts and I'll bet we could add another $1000 a month to his income from all the interest earned. And you KNOW he's gotta have more than just one account.

It gets worse. Over that past 4 years, I've found numerous coins in the parking lot at the Ranch. Granted, they were mainly pennies, but there was the occasional dime and quarter. But THOSE were only the ones *I* found. I wouldn't be surprised to find Mike, in his spare moments when he's not counting his PAPER money, to be out there metal detecting and pocketing ZILLIONS of lost coins from his parking lots. Trust me on this one. I have a metal detector and I've found over $15 in lost change so far in 6 months. I did find an aluminum ring, too. But I only do it 20 or 30 hours a week; Mike lives right there and he's probably down there in the lot right now where you last parked, finding the loose change that fell from your jeans when you changed clothes.

I never realized what a Bonanza Mike has there at the Springs. And don't let his meager surroundings at the Ranch buildings fool you. I don't know where he hides it, but you KNOW he's got a MANSION tucked away SOMEWHERE out there.

It all adds up, Guys. If Mike's not making at least a MILLION DOLLARS a year off this gold mine and living a LIFE OF LUXURY, he ain't making squat!

Sorry. That's it. That's my point. I tend to believe the latter.

PS. - Hey, just as an afterthought, I was wondering if you guys in the previous thread would be kind enough to post your Tax Returns for the last decade. I may have some suggestions about how each of us can earn reward money for turning each other in to the IRS.
