How We Make Money at Stack Overflow

Correct. This question - HOW MUCH MONEY does Stack Overflow make per year - was asked in their Meta site. Granted it's a privately held company but there is atleast 1 answer that quotes "credible sources" and pegs it at atleast 21 MILLION USD in revenues (for 2013).

How do they employ almost 300 people on $11 mil / year?

Also, why are these posts getting downvoted? The title of this article is "How We Make Money at Stack Overflow".

Venture capital. I highly doubt they're even close to profitable with revenue per employee of $36k.
