A short YouTube monologue by Peter Vander Wall (uploaded Aug 23, 2025) arguing that an average business owner makes about $100,000/year and that $100k is no longer especially wealthy—presented as a defense of business owners against criticism from younger/socialist commentators. The speaker frames $100k as "pretty good" but "not crazy" and suggests it can be only the bare minimum for a family.

About $100,000 per year.

The average business owner only makes, like, 100 grand a year. So all you like socialist college grads who are hating on business owners saying millionaires shouldn't exist, like, shit like that, Just shut up. Like 100 grand a year is pretty good. It's nothing crazy. It's nothing special. Honestly, it's kind of the bare minimum to get by if you have a family nowadays. And we're making that money by convincing somebody else we're actually worth it, not just filling some HR diversity quota.
