I'm a Systems Administrator, 27. My current system is around 7K, aka Stage two. My first system, Stage one, was around 2K, ten years ago.
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...
