How much money does USPS make from Styleforum every year?

Bonus points for guessing how many workers we singlehandedly keep employed.

It is a line item on the income statement. Just look closely.

I have singlehandedly put $400+ into USPS' coffers in 2009 alone. I am but one man among many.

USPS, Fedex, UPS They all make lots of money off of SF, imagine all the other forums out there too

You are a: "Man among Men"...

Add another $50 or so since I started this thread.

This sounds like one of those hypothetical questions given in a job interview for a management consulting or software firm like "how many books would you have to stack to reach the moon?"

If there is z SF users who on average purchase x amount of clothing per year. c% of them make their purchasing decisions based on what people say on SF and from a company using USPS. If the average shipping cost is v% of the sale then (z*x)*c%*v% = amount USPS makes this amount z = 47,750 x = $3,000 c = 4% v = 10% $573,000 ------------- www.jamesvii.com

Uh, USPS operated at a net loss of $2.8 billion last year.

But yes, we do send a lot of mail.

 

[constant struggle]

over the year, they probably get close to $500 from me
