What's your profession? Age?

Hi
I am a IBT - Handyman by day. Inventor\woodwork by night. Love to work with my hands. My dream job would be a small Hi-Fi shop with 1st class service for audiophiles on the budget-based on trust and fair play.
Also generate a small profit from few houses that I own in N.Y.
I am a 33years old, wife and a cute little girl.
Came to US 16years ago as a exchange student-like it and stayed.
Total system price- 53,000*
* room-audio-video-tweaks ac room treatment
started over ten years ago with $1000 system.

retail service manager for home improvement. 35 yrs..married.. baby due Thanksgiving..system retail for approx 50k...but the only items i buy new are for turntable...never could come close to afford the gear if it wasnt for second hand

I work in the broadcast tv equipment industry as a wanna-be engineer. I'm 10,220 days old which is almost what my stereo has cost to date

39. PA tech, former recording engineer for 18 or so years. Getting off the road and going into telcomm ( No frequency over 2K !! ) Can't list the price in fear The Lass may find out. Did tell her the used speakers were cheap due to age. Like who uses wood horns anymore!

Waffle35,

That is 3K and stay out of telcomm. I am telling you this for your own good. 300-3k is voice.
