29, Automobile Factory Rep, an understanding wife and 10+ years of progressively upgraded stuff has led to a system that retailed for around $27,000. The understanding wife part is the most important, I have found that Tiffany & Co makes for some nice upgrade potential, diamond earrings got me Vienna Acoustics Mahlers, a silver ring got me a VPI Scout, so it is all proportional.
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...
