I think Kyle is unlikely to be making $400K per year. If he were, Susan wouldn’t have needed to encourage him to find other streams of revenue and Casey would not have pointed out the livestream Wednesday Wine and Unwind idea. If he were making $400K annually, he could easily afford his house without changing a single part of his lifestyle. That logic holds the same for an annual income of $300K or $200K.
Kyle likely makes 6 figures since he’s confident he can support Casey if she quits her job. So that puts him in the $100K-$199K range. Based on the mortgage he can carry, I would surmise he makes $150K-180K. It’s a whole lot more than anyone should be getting for just walking around a theme park for 3 hours a day, but it’s not $400K.
When I was younger, a person once told me that earning $100K in NYC was just above poverty level due to the high COL in NYC. Orlando shouldn’t be as expensive as NYC, but with Kyle’s expensive house, impulsive spending habits, and need for luggjury, he may be just a hair from poverty if he’s not very careful. It’ll be interesting to see how he proceeds forward. Pass the popcorn!
I think we can rule out that Kyle is not broke. I know that's been a long-running speculation on here. The debate can then be made if he's making $100k, $200k, $300k, etc. Regardless, amazing money for waltzing around a theme park and making noises with his mouth.
In this case, I'd say the figures we saw on his phone were accurate as the only way I could see him faking those would be if he was broke and seething. Unless anyone still thinks what was shown on his phone is fake, then he must be earning at least $300k or a little over (before taxes). Dec 2022 through May 2023 showed $160,000 and that included half a month and his break month January which was much lower than the rest of the months.
May 2023 (3 weeks into the month):
$22,316
April 2023:
$26,900
March 2023:
$30,110
February 2023:
$26,346
January 2023 (break):
$18,543
December 2022:
$36,300
Multiply those totals for 2023 by 2x, and it ends up somewhere around $320,000+

Strapped for cash if you need $10,000 from the Seller to pay closing costs.
If he were strapped for cash, where did the down payment come from and where would all this money (enough to qualify for a $600k loan, which was verified by the underwriter) be going?
Most logical answer is he's making good money, as much as people don't want to admit it, and mommy manages it for him. Doesn't mean he's still not a POS. The $10k off the house was probably because it was a hard sell. Only the Pallos were attracted to it
