I am in sales, selling to financial institutions. Age 45. My current system retails for $25K. Most of it was purchased slightly pre-owned for around 30-50% off. This does not include the $10K or so that is laying around and not being used.
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...
