$1,750 a MONTH - that's gonna leave a mark.

Not really.

At $105,000/yr., that's $8,750/mo., so $1,750/mo. is only twenty percent on a pre-tax basis.

Johnston is young and, judging by the fact that he hasn't gone to college, probably largely debt-free.

$7,000/mo. on a pre-tax basis is a heckuva lot of cash flow for someone with little or no debts.

It's the pre-tax part that's the killer - after tax, it's probably closer to 35%, just doing the math in my head. And, let's get serious, Levi Johnston is never going to see that much money again.

I'm sorry but that seems like a dumb assumption, care to reconsider? :)

You’re assuming he’s going to make 6 figures this year and next year and...

He’s a one trick pony who will be in rehab or long term unemployment. $1750 a month WILL leave a big mark.
