I already did think about all of that, but I decided to NOT calculate that just to keep it simple.

he won the bid, knowing he could never make the payments, reaped the rewards of having an ideal location to sell hotdogs to tourists and generated as much business that he could before the city caught on to his scam. according to the numbers, he was there for around 5 months... which isn't too outrageous.
