Thompson’s net worth was estimated at approximately $42.9 million as of February 16, 2024
His total compensation in 2022 was reported to be $9.86 million, comprising a base salary of $1 million, stock awards, option awards, and non-equity incentive plans.
Thompson had “fuck you” money. The guy was at no risk of needing employment. Equating Thompson with the working class is a joke.
And Luigi was carrying around more cash than most people his age have ever had in savings total.
And what good did that do him?
It’s not about money, its about wealth. You could have all the money in the world but if you have all the debts to pay then it means nothing.
Pretty certain he had all his debts paid off, or at the very least more than enough money and power to do so.
His parents own tons of real estate and his grandfather was even more loaded. In fact, I bet two semesters of his high school surpassed the cost of all of his out of pocket spinal surgery and care combined.
