I forgot to multiply by 24. 24 hours multiplied by $3600 is $86,400. So he would spend about $86,400 to earn $100,000.

If the house had only a 2% advantage, then he would spend about $57,600 to earn the $100,000.

Also, my math could be completely wrong.

Your math looks good, but he didn't spend about $86,400 to earn $100,000. He "spent" $86,400 for a chance at $100,000.
