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...

i am a 54 yo physician assistant/home health care agency owner who also has a surgical assistant business.
I'm 39 and a IT professional, work on Nortel DMS switches running DA and ACD in a call centers. Also do some networking and VB programming if needed.

I have about 20k+ in my system, about 2000 CD's and a couple hundred albums.
I'm 25 and an underwriter for a title insurance company. I have quite a modest system at somewhere around $5k retail and much less used. Luckily, I spend what little I can afford to upgrade as much as possible. I'm only a few short weeks away from that new record brush.
I am a 28 yo Webmaster/Photographer/Network Admin and run about 9 websites for a large manufacuturing company. I have 2 systems I have purchased in the last 6 months worth about $4000 (only paid about $2000) and one in my car worth $5000. I really got into home audio/home theatre since I work at home so much. Bought a lot of my stuff from audiogon/half/ebay/ubid.
