This means $26K before taxes, right? Which is the equivalent of making roughly $12.50 an hour while working 40 hour weeks all year.

$12.50/hr paying for your meals is worth more than any education plus free food, apparel, and all the perks of a big time athlete at a top school

Probably happened already and kid is intelligent enough to state $26,000 is good pay for a seventeen year old knowing full well $76,000 is greater than $26,000. Doesn’t need a higher education for that. As an added incentive he figured out 4>1 and left a loser.

Kid will take home more than 100k, plus car, jewelry, clothes etc. He'll be just fine.

Signing kids is a competitive business.
