but your lovin' don't pay my bills

This 'lifestyle calculator' is a somewhat depressing toy. It calculates how much you would need to be earning to spend what you'd like to spend (or are spending). Apparently I should be on another £1000 a year, which I guess I could have told them.

Hey, I'm still not having any fun here, in case anyone's keeping track.

My gods...

Its a good read.

Its like Microserfs... But seemingly more real...

Heh - Interesting to see that somethings rarely change (i.e. programmers not washing!!)

I could never be a programmer...

LOL

Yes, I did; it sounds like why people sail round the world single-handed - bloody awful at the time but it makes a good story for years afterwards.

Myself, I've always (well, for about 15 years) wanted to be a programmer. I see it as a glamourous, exciting and well-paid life, even after having read this. That's how dull my existence is!
