>He earns 7 figs a month from it iirc,
Less than 7 figures (~1 million) per year -- not per month -- based on previous comment from 2021: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26769141
A later 2023 interview updated it to ~$200k/month (~2.4 million/year) : https://web.archive.org/web/20240606073354/https://saastrapp...
Still enough to hire a lawyer and at least do a few consultation sessions. That's a necessary business expense.
(I'd just quit my job if I had an income like this.)
That comment was over 5 years ago. That's a long time, and from estimates he has millions of users now. Definitely making big money.
