I'd be suprised if his Microsoft Regional Director and MVP status isn't worth much more than 4 figures to him.
Those seeking to initiate engagements with Troy might care more about the fact that he pops up on HN and other high profile tech outlets frequently and the visibility of Have I Been Pwned, but the Regional Director status probably helps a lot with getting some of these engagements signed off.
He probably also receives significant subsidies from Microsoft as well.
