Hard to tell, some small businesses suck all the money out with good tax planning. After you get a car, 25% toward your pension first class health insurance, lunch and entertainment allowance you can get a modest W-2 and live well.

Not saying that was the case here but if they were smart it was. Somewhere along the line they must have known that a lawsuit was coming that would hit paydirt.
