I think that estimate is off. That would amount to more than 50% paid in taxes. Federal income tax on 200K of taxable income is "only" $45K, and that is assuming he doesn't have substantial deductions. Add in state, FICA, and property, and I doubt you are close to $110K in taxes a year. Probably closer to $60-70K a year.
