Thanks. That's what I figured. Here's the facts we learned so far about Prometheus Methods Tower Services Inc.:

Prometheus Methods Tower Services Inc. was a sole proprietorship based out of the Berg house in West Chester, Pennsylvania. It is not incorporated, and is not registered to do business in Pennsylvania.

According to a search of a credible business database, the company was started in 2002, had one employee (Nick), and had annual sales of 65,000. This seems consistent with what tower technicians are paid, from information on this thread and another that they get paid $16 per hour. You figure Nick would get a bit of a markup as owner.

Does anyone have a source for the $70,000 per week claim? It seems to be a corruption of $70,000 per year, which seems more likely.

...annual sales of 65,000

Ordinarily, "annual sales" would refer to gross revenues of a business before any expenses. When taking into consideration equipment/supplies, travel expenses, payroll taxes, workers comp insurance, other insurance, business licenses, etc., that doesn't leave much left over for "payroll" itself. Even with only one employee, $65,000 in "sales" doesn't sound like a business of any substance whatsoever.
