What's your profession? Age?


Just thought after the "how much is your system worth" post that it would be nice to see what all these people do to get $80K systems, and perhaps how long it takes. I'm a 29-year old economist for the gov., just completeed my Ph.D. last month, and my system is at about $10K. Just a pup hoping to keep upgrading...

Now 64yo retired. Living the life with my wife. Civil/traffic engineer for 40 yrs.
Got a deal I couldn’t refuse. A demo 250k system for 80k (less the components I had).
I’m a lucky, lucky man 😁 🇦🇺
An update to my previous post. I seem to have over stated the good stuff, but my body has has slightly less metal in it than my TT platter (10kgs). Virtually every joint and rods and screws up and down my back.

I am having the time of my life. Yes. Living on Oxy at high doses plus more. Pain is 10 every day but it is just normal. My lovely wife fell and snapped the right shoulder humerus from the joint ball. 2 days ago had a plate and numerous screws (8 I think) and will be in a sling for 6 weeks. Night before I was to drive her to the hospital I fell and dislocated my hip, a metal one. Not good for both of us. Then there is cancer...

I have a good system, we love it, and we have diverted our down time to music we love. We live in an nice place and are blessed for it.

I just wanted to show that there is a back story to all of us that we are not aware of.

It’s not how big our stuff is, but how we as people, but appreciate life and get the best out of the time and lives we have left.

Cheers and prayers to everyone. A 🇦🇺
