I’m willing to take what he says at face value. $168k sounds like a lot to most Americans, but who knows what debts, medical bills, family problems, etc. he has? I’m sure he made much, much more at FNC, and it’s very tough to downsize your budget.

168k isn’t really alot to live in DC or almost anywhere on the east coast. I think I read that Tony has college age kids so tuition might be a huge expense too along with health concerns. I’m hoping maybe some publishing house will give him a gigantic advance on a future book he may write and he could continue to the end of the term.
