What about after the program, if you don't get a job, or don't get a job in the data science field?

The deal I was given is that if you earn less than $40k for the next year, you get the whole program for free.

If you earn $lots as a painter, porn star, film producer - whatever - you still pay your 10% of what you earn above $40k capped at $250k. But if you plan on having a very lucrative non-data science career in the next year, then why are you on the program?
