Welcome+
Good first edit. Only comment: The so-called Edit summary to explain the edit doesn't need much detail. In your case 'bail wrong' would have been sufficient and definitely you don't need the web address link. I will note that the New Yorker source on the paragraph also had the lower amount (and don't know why the text was wrong; no $10,000 cited in either article) so you didn't need the extra citation but it's good to have.

Here's an official 'pre-packaged' welcome with, hopefully, some helpful guidance for you as a new editor, :

Additional tips...


 * Please sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes ( ~ ). This will automatically insert your "signature" (your username and a date stamp). The [[Image:Signature_icon.png]] or [[File:Insert-signature.png]] button, on the tool bar above Wikipedia's text editing window, also does this.

 * I also generally advise clicking on your 'red link' user name above and setting up a User page, as simple or as elaborate as you care it to be to start and as you go along. Good luck, and have fun. Cheers. Swliv (talk) 00:38, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
