What do/did you do for a living?

Infectious disease nurse practitioner. 

I played sports as a profession. Baseball all state as a kid got a  free ride through college playing ball then double A pros. blew out the right arm career ended. Lived on an estate of a nationally ranked senior tennis player became a USTA 5 in tennis,then blew out the other arm. I lived next to a golf course got to a 6 handicap before blowing out my back.turns out a life in sports and a genetic predisposition to osteoarthritis is not a good combination to have. Now I just kayak the Delaware and ride my bike. Oh to make money I managed a business office in a State's Division responsible for child protection ie investigation and intervention in cases of child abuse. FYI at any one time, we had 50,000 + kids under state supervision( and their parents)for substantiated child abuse, 8,000 kids in foster homes,1,400 kids up for adoption, and 1,500 kids in 24/7residential treatment centers.I listen to music to chill on an old system now as an old man.My system is getting younger one piece at a time while sadly I'm getting older and running out of time. What a ride it's been. 

I do university admissions consulting, and co-own a SAT prep/tutoring company, also a private debate academy. 

Clients are Chinese mainly, they are the only ones seemingly with the money and desire to spend big on their kids' future... this is really really scary personally as over the last 20 years I have become convinced the Chinese will one day supplant us white folk and rule the world.

On a more pleasant note, I charge them big money which allows me to buy $$$ hifi gear.

I studied psychiatry, and work now for a Italian company as medical-pharmaceutical rep. in Belgium. Live alone and “music” is my life.:”The first, the last, my everything” My best friends ,2 brothers (Tom and Jef) build high-end speakers (Ilumnia Magister). Music is our passion. My equipment is about 90k. 

Electrical Engineer been working for utilities all across the nation - current home in Southern California.  Had turntables (low quality) since I was a kid.  Love affair with music started then and continues.
