Potential revenue per day: $ 53,848 / day Potential revenue per month: $ 1,615,440 / month Potential revenue per year: $ 19,385,280 / year
This is according to worthofweb, supposevely a reliable sources that ROBLOX uses to find out how many minutes are spent in game |

If they 1,615,400 a month
then 662500 a month on employees
( I divided it by 12, the estimated amount ROBLOX spends a year)
20,000 a month on servers
and 50,000 a month on devs?
732500 total |

Now imagine how much they have to spend on mods TWICE every month. Plus keep servers up AND pay devs

| I may have sounded a bit harsh when I said that,the rage and shock from hearing this news was still in me.But the fact still remains the same.Over $19.3 million is a lot of money and a lot of the updates are either pointless or are just terrible. |

I'm not totally sure how much I trust that number. I don't think we use that site to determine time spent in game, as we can use our own internal data for that, and don't need to rely on somebody else.
And that being said, in the world of tech, $19 million isn't that huge. Let's look at staff alone. Thanks to google, we can search up "Average wage of a Computer Scientist", and see that the average computer scientist can make in the range of $53,873 - $108,150 per year. Let's assume ROBLOX falls right in the middle, $81,011.50 Let's say ROBLOX employs 25 computer scientists (the number is probably higher), that means ROBLOX spends $2,025,287 on wages alone, not counting any costs to actually run the business. $19 million may seem like a lot of money, and it is for you and I, but when you run a business that kind of money is not much at all. |

| Gordon makes a good point. There's a lot of things that come into play that you have to pay for when you own a company. |

Congrats, you looked a fact up on the internet, so it must be true 👍
Fun fact: if you think $1.6m a month is a lot of money, you are ignorant to the costs of running a business (employees, rent, other bills) |

@Gordon
Allow me to enlighten you
ROBLOX has 159 employees according to glassdoor
Lets say you guys pay each person 50,000 a year
( Assuming not everyone makes that much)
That's $7950000 a year
Less than 1/19

Worth of web is also the 1# web value caculator
ROBLOX calls themselves the 1# kids game
I believe that, I also believe web value calculator isn't lying. |

| 7,950,000/19,000,000 = 41% of all income. That's a huge chunk. That only leaves $11 million to run everything. If ROBLOX had $11 million to run everything, HQ wouldn't have lights or running water. |
