He probably made a decent living (you know, working hard to try and get ahead in life).
But "rich"? Hell no. And people talking about him spending all of his "wealth"...what "wealth"? lol
$300,000 a year isn't shit anymore. He might have had the money to take a unexpensive vacation once a year and maybe take his wife to dinner every week. Other than that...paying his bills and his taxes as a member of the middle class would probably take care of that money.

$300k/year is not considered middle class, it's way above it. The average middle class household income for a family of 4 is $70,354. Taken from google.
This guy lived a very privileged life compared to most people in this country and he by his own bad judgment failed to secure his position and gambled with his future health. He lost.
Would you guys be trying so hard to make excuses for him if he was a minority whom worked as a janitor and couldn't afford insurance? Would you care about him or would you complain that you had to pay his welfare check? ( I know the answer don't worry because I've already seen the posts here on GFY)
The simple fact is if this guy wasn't on you guy's team whining about Obamacare, if he wasn't a moderately successful white guy , you guys would be trashing him for being stupid and not taking responsibility for his actions. The only reason you guys are defending him because it's made political because he cried about Obamacare and he jumped on the blame all his troubles on Obama bandwagon which so many of you relate to.
