I would guess he does some business ventures outside of the UFC possibly, as would I if I were in his position (yet I am not as I'm not a professional martial artist at his skill level nor in his life). Yet I don't remember if he has commented on his financial/economical status either. However he is an instructor so maybe he does well with that as a business?

Stephen Wonderboy, you are truly a servant of the trade and true ambassador. Been a fan for a long time.
