dan76n Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 Hi all, As the title says, I know some of you guys have some pretty insane gear out there that I and many others envy but I'm curious to see how much of a priority HT is to everyone, and well I really wanted to do a poll. to work it out divide the amount you have spent on you HT by your annual household income (gross no super) then multiply it by 100. IE $5000 setup an AHI of $50000 would be 5000 divided by 50000 = 0.1 X 100 = 10%. Try and minimise discussing your own result as it wont take a genius to work out your income if you have been discussing your ht.
Gino Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 I don't think the math quite works out... it should be over the lifetime you have been collecting the equipment, not your total HT costs divided into your annual income. eg. someone accumulated $50K worth of gear over 5 years and earns $50K pa. well that implies 100%, but it isn't really now is it.
djOS Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 I've spent roughly 60% of what was my Annual pre-tax income (up till 3 Months ago) over the past 2 years ..... but that is only counting what I have in my HT atm; due to a constant case of upgradeitis I could easily add at least $5,000 to that figure! My excuse is that I've been single for most of the last 4 years and figured I better get myself a good HT before I find Mrs djOS #2.
