Retired air traffic controller. After 22 years of telling people where to go and how to get there, I retired under mandatory rules. 8 years later, I’m still looking for work. I’m very lucky to have a pension, but after housing, car payment, credit card and grocery store and medical bills, there’s nothing left. So hoping to find a job that I can work for the next 6-8 years. And hoping I last that long. I wonder, too, what people do for work and what I could have done differently. Too many closed doors. And at 64 now, that’s about all there is.
My system is very basic. B&K ST-140 amp into some ancient Acousti-Craft speakers. Actually some Polk bookshelf speakers I have sound much better. But the A-Cs look really cool. Same Technics DD turntable I bought new in 1978 and an Eastern Electric tube pre with an Emotiva CD.
Sort of a mishmash really. But it’s been packed away for a year while I’ve been in a variety of transitions. So, my most-used system is my Macbook Air streaming Spotify. Or my iPhone and same.
