Since espers don't live with their families in Academy City and can't rely on parental wages for support, we're provided with scholarships for the experiments we're involved in. The more prestigious the school you attend and the higher your level, the more you receive. The trade-off is that you have to be involved in more research. Level 0s only have to go through the minimum of tests, Level 5s will have hundreds of scientists at any given time studying them.
[Which is a very long way of explaining he basically got paid super well to kill the clones. Fun stuff.]
[Which is kind of true, he's never thought about all of those experiments in terms of money, and he certainly has never thought about what kinds of tests Level 0s go through.
He's kind of wondering that now. Specifically, about a certain Level 0, and how normal his life must be since he still has to do normal things like budgeting for groceries and school supplies.]
I suppose most of the espers back home do, though, since about 60% of them are Level 0.
