What do/did you do for a living?


With the increasingly high priced items people own and are selling, I'm curious about the line of work people do or have done. I thought my $5k integrated was a massive investment, but seeing users searching for $100k speakers or $75k SET amplifiers has me curious about the varying lines of work people do to afford these items.

We have young people in the 30's move into our neighborhood buy a house for $800,000 and put over $350,000 in the house before even moving in.  Then you ask what they do for a living and the math doesn't add up.  They often also have two cars in their garage worth over $150,000.  

What astounds me is a realtor has sent me well over 400 listings of homes listed in our area over the past 4 years.  I have yet to see even a pair of speakers sitting in a family room or living room.  Then you see their wide screen TV sitting on a $7,000 entertainment center with no speakers again.  I cannot believe how people are satisfied watching a move through the TV speakers.  This said, no matter why the stereo music industry is in trouble.  I have yet to see a TV add for Bowers & Wilkins, Paradigm, Sonas Faber or Kef,  Then you hear how poorly the speaker manufacturers are doing.  If this is the case, who buys stereo equipment these and where do they hide them if you don't see them when viewing a home for sale listing?
The lack of stereo systems showing could well be the effect of "staging the home" advice from realtors.
