I'm not surprised that a journalist managing an 80-person team was paid $200k+.
What I am surprised by is how he ever ended up working retail with a salary like that. I'd expect him to have saved up enough to last a year or two of low expenses.

I make $15k annually as a student right now and I still have managed to save up enough that I could live for 3 or 4 months if I lost my job. It would just be a matter of being very careful with my spending.
Anything <$50 is also an impulse buy for me, but I've still managed to sock away a year or so of expenses.
