With its current staff levels and its current 250 students taking classes at any one time, Mayhew estimates that the company brings about $100 million a year into the local economy.
Not sure what kind of math someone is using.....but lets assume each student spends $100,000, oh and even assume that 500 students spend that in one year, it still only adds up to $50 million. A vast portion of that money goes to paying for fuel and aircraft which do not come from the local economy.
I am guessing that Nick was either mis-quoted, or I am in the wrong business. What am I missing?
