How much money do you think Andy and the WSO team makes? Really Curious

I'm curious as to how much money this website pulls in because its business model is strange to me.

They don't have ads, is free and the only paid competent are courses that are one time payments and non recurring in sectors that can only be described as niche as best. How many people need an LBO course monthly. 

Plus Andy works full time for the website and I'm sure they have other staff, this model doesn't seem to be very profitable but they seem to have been going strong for 10+ years.

Any thoughts? 

 

i think wso should set up a patreon type of system where people who are grateful for its info, content and even community would donate money, not for any special access or perks (i would hate that) but just for appreciation to keep the site going in a wholesome way.

I would have donated a couple hundred dollars by now especially when I first got into IB because i was ecstatic and got a lot of help from here.

 

buy a guide or something to give them your money. You can also subscribe to the stock recommendation type thing.

I guess you could also buy patrick a pizza  or a cake and have it delivered to his office. Send a little note "Form your favorite anon monkey. on WSO." I'm sure he'd appreciate the gesture.
