His parents just up and paid the $40,000 bill every month.

(equally canonically, his incipient genius was recognised at birth by the attending OB-GYN who fitted him with his first pair of glasses as a mark of his trade. Which kinda implies that his parents know everything and are just acting oblivious while collecting on a couple thousand patents and/or some sweet DoD funding)
