It might. He talks about revenue but not about profit. So we dpn't really know much about his costs, aside from him mentioning that he was spending a meaningful amount on insurance.

It could very well be that acquisition cost was quite reasonable, and he may have talked about this elsewhere. I just don't think the IH interview tells us enough to know for sure one way or the other.

He's published a huge amount of detail about revenue and costs, his profits aren't enough to sustain a family.

I say that with the greatest amount of respect for the man by the way, he's super super smart and I love his writing.
