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'm a electrical design engineer, almost 40 years old, married with 2 kids. My two channel audio system is about $20K if new. Have a separate home theatre system but that is not really audio. Have been in this hobby for over 20 years. Never knew or have any urge to learn to play any musical instruments but it might change soon. Recently the family bought a new piano for the 5 year old son. I have decided that I'll be learning to play the piano with my son (with professional tutor - of course).
