Not at all. 9.11 * 52 = 473.72. At the very least, it's very obviously somewhere between $468-$520/yr, just over 1/10 of what was promised. There's no insincerity nor obfuscation...

Well, except 'household' is not the same as 'worker', and 'typical' is not falsifiable so it could mean anything. When you take a 'typical' household, say 2 employed parents 2 kids and they own a home or other assets it's far from an unreasonable estimate.
But this isn't about reasonable estimates, of course. Hence the deceptive per worker per week comparison. You got played by the household versus worker they snuck in there.
