[Alex Jones] also listed his living expenses at about $69,000 for April alone

Goddamn, dude. Stop ordering DoorDash.

How in the fuck does someone even spend that much a month?! Even in some crazy scenario where me and my wife eat out every single night I can only get to like $2300 monthly for restaurants. Throw another $5k (high) for mortgage, grocery, bills, etc doesn't put me anywhere close. Hell, if you stayed at a hotel for 30 nights at even $200 a night that's only $6k. Lots of hookers and drugs?

I did a little digging - here’s something reported to the court:

“His July spending included $7,900 on housekeeping, $15,184 in prenuptial payments to his wife, $6,302 in maintenance and taxes for his vacation lake house, and $6,338 on meals and entertainment, according to court papers.”

Dude needs to get YNAB… or just cut back on the avocado toast.

The lake house and lavish entertainment budget need to be given to the victims of his despicable conduct tho.

Yup, and once those are sold he can keep giving the $6K monthly payments going to them. Sounds like he needs a $200 vacuum cleaner too, then he’s got another $7k to send the victims.

Edit: flipped the numbers.

The majority is going toward his prenup. Good on his now ex-wife and her attorney.
