The money side is not making sense to me.

• 100 recruits with a first time fee of $450, and $120 renewal.  That works out to around $45,000 for the first years. 
• Assume his office rent cost $1000 per month. 
• This leaves $35,000. 

Either there is more money involved from recruitst that I am not seeing (how much did promotions cost?), or he was also using his own money and this was more about some fantasy.
