11 million distributed around is going to be close to nothing on a per-publisher basis. I wouldn't be surprised if the spread was more than 100 to 1 on owed vs collected. (so if yo…

Looks to be about.... 10? times the cost of a normal elevator if I had to guess. I bet the maintenance costs are fun as well. As such, doubt you will see these except in niche buil…
