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 an eye surgeon,aged 47 and my current system is about 15K but unfortunately I was hit by severe 'tube rolling fever bug 'more than a year ago.I has since collected more than 15k worth of NOS and used vintage tubes that can last the rest of my life but the fever is still not subsiding yet!!!!!!!!
