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 a 24 year old law student/lawclerk with a $15K system. Keep in mind, I know of a 23 year old who works at a high end audio store and has a system where the speakers alone (5 of them) run $13K msrp. Lets not forget that store owners and their employees usually have fantastic sounding systems.
