He's now 31 and he owns 7 Subways so he did really good for himself. And I had friends who gradated, went straight to uni and now they're sitting at home unemployed with massive post secondary debt so I don't really know who's really worst off.
is it even possible to work part-time for 6 years and save up enough $ to buy a subway?
let's be generous and say he was working $18/h maybe 30 hours a week...

no way in hell or at least it can't be replicated by today's costs
