How Did George Costanza Live Without Money?

George Costanza spent most of Seinfeld without a real job. He lived with his parents, lied to the unemployment office, and still ate out almost every day, drove his own car and took women to dinner. So who was actually paying for all of it? I went back through all nine seasons and kept a ledger of every dollar George earned and every dollar somebody else paid for him. Vandelay Industries and the unemployment checks. The NBC pilot deal he talked down to $8,000. Moving back in with Frank and Estelle. The Yankees salary, the tip jar, the cheapest wedding envelopes in the store, the Summer of George, the fake disability at Play Now and the Human Fund. At the end there's a final total, and a look at how the man George was based on became one of the richest people in television. Some numbers are my own estimates, because the show almost never gives a salary, and I say so in the video when they are. Sources are listed below. Would you have lent George money?
