That is enough to support a modest household, but he chooses to live at his parents' split- level ranch house outside Chicago, as does his sister Pamela, 20, who commutes to a nearby college. He admits to expensive tastes. He recently bought an $8,000 car and also owns an $800 stereo system, a $300 ten-speed bike and an elegant wardrobe.
