Looks like just a tad over $311,974.05/sq km to me.
He's small -time.

OK I may need help with this... Bill Gates is reported to be worth $76 Billion dollars. That is so much money that he could put $580,000 in every square kilometer of England. Just a big pallet of money in each square kilometer. Am I doing that math right? How about some US states? NOOOOO Math! My mortal nemesis!

I never did see Aliens, though the culture of it has percolated to an extent in me. Need to get around to it some day.

I'm 42 years old and the song "Cats in the cradle" by Harry Chapin still drives me to tears when I hear it. I guess it's because I grew up without a father and could never afford college.

We're at a point, socially, where a traditional four-year degree is meaningless. It's the modern high-school diploma. Don't grieve for college, Rook. The only real thing you learn there is how to party, and I bet you have that down. As far as education, you strike me as the type to be quite capable of being a master of any subject in which you choose to teach yourself.

Hmmm... Historically I have made more money with my four-year degree (lots) than I have with my Master's (none). I'm actually having to pay even more money this summer to do something that will allow me to use my Master's to make money...
In other news, I've added a new member to my family of pew-pew-pew masheens. I was going to call her Lynn Minmei (+ internetz to those who know who this is without using Google or equivalent internet searchy to look her up), because she's Chinese and is a long gun (although not as long as Natasha the Shoulder (and Tool) Breaker, although she is a Russian design and was the successor to Natasha and her sisters), but after removing her butt plate (*George Takei voice* "Ohhhhh myyyyyyyy...") during my initial cleaning to get rid of all the Cosmoline (which only took 2.5 hours as opposed to the 6+ that my friend who also has the same type of pew-pew-pew masheen warned me to expect)) and finding sand caked under it, I have decided to call her Sha, which is Chinese for sand, and the word is also pronounced the same way as the name of Char Aznable (the main antagonist in the original Mobile Suit Gundam series), so I consider it a double sign of correct naming-ness-osity, and stuff...
Also, parenthetical statements FTW.

You're also in a special type of job market where there will always be money, and there will always be jobs. Take notes, kids. If you didn't major in the hard sciences, medicine, or law, you're not going to get a fancy job unless you know people. At least, that's how it is for the majority in the US, now with new and improved poorest poor among developed nations. Oh, and richest rich.

I will also add that knowing people in the hard sciences, medicine, and law is also a huge boost in finding a jerb, as pretty much all of my previous ones came from networking and knowing people. Now that that network has disintegrated, finding a jerb has been much harder, which is another one of the reasons why I will be spending even more money this summer to actuate my Master's...

Today; the man who gave a beastman a plasma pistol, who armed them with lasguns, machine pistols, and a melta pistol...
Just gave them a rocket launcher.

Just a big pallet of money in each square kilometer. Am I doing that math right? How about some US states? Mr. Gates makes so much money in a year that if he saw a $100 bill lying on the ground it would literally not be worth his time to pick it up. I need a time machine so I could go back to 1982 and buy $3,000 worth of Microsoft stock. Then, I'd go back to 1956, and look up a couple Japanese businessmen trying to start up a radio parts company so that I could help pay their startup costs and become an equal partner in what would become Sony.

The Department has a new van. *Unveils the new DONT Team van, with 2 vulcan mega blasters on top* You have to burn breakfast marines. But there are bacon breakfast marines as well as the pancakes and syrup variant.

Just until they sizzle and start spitting fat. Then they're toasty, and the divine aroma will summon Hetlan. Probably Trooper, as well.
Actually, Trooper is more likely.
