[Alex Jones] also listed his living expenses at about $69,000 for April alone

Goddamn, dude. Stop ordering DoorDash.

He's fucking got house staff that takes care of his properties and his family.

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.

[-] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

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.

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 5 months ago

The majority is going toward his prenup. Good on his now ex-wife and her attorney.

[-] fuzzzerd@programming.dev 20 points 5 months ago

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.

Stop being so mean! Cocaine is expensive, ok?

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

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.

[-] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

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.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

The most I can manage is a mean of $10k/mo.

[-] billiam0202@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

IT'S ALL THE BRAIN FORCE X-PLUS EXTREME SILVER WITH FISH OIL, BABY!

[-] JackiesFridge@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

You made me read that in his voice using nothing but all-caps

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

$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.
