I think McDingdong is employed. He is educated. He said he was a TA (teaching assistant for General Chemistry) at his state university. If you get paid by W2 your taxes come out automatically (regardless of income level). You being a IVY leaguer knew that right?

I know the TA's at the universities I attended probably didn't even make $10K/yr. They usually just did it to put on their resumes to cash in later and to get a professor's highly positive recommendation letter for a high paying job after graduation. They definitely didn't do it for the TA salary.
